Match Facts
Sheffield United have won each of their last three home league games against Aston Villa, since a 1-0 loss in January 2018 in the Championship.
Aston Villa have lost just two of their 11 Premier League games against Sheffield United (W6 D3), though those two defeats have come in their last two visits to Bramall Lane.
Aston Villa have won six of their seven Premier League games against promoted sides under Unai Emery, though the exception was a 1-1 draw with Sheffield United in the reverse fixture in December.
Sheffield United are only the fourth team to have accumulated just 10 or fewer points after 22 matches in a Premier League season, after Bolton in 1995-96 (10), Sunderland in 2005-06 (9) and Derby County in 2007-08 (7), all of whom finished bottom of the division at the end of the season.
Aston Villa have picked up just five points in their last five Premier League matches (W1 D2 L2), shipping nine goals – in their previous five, they collected 13 points (W4 D1) and conceded only four times.
Sheffield United have kept just one clean sheet in the Premier League this season, the fewest of any side, and have conceded 54 goals, the most in the league. Only Barnsley in 1997-98 (57) have ever conceded more at this stage of a Premier League season.
Aston Villa have conceded three goals in two of their last four Premier League matches (2-3 vs Manchester United, 1-3 vs Newcastle United), as many times as they had in their previous 33 games combined (1-5 vs Newcastle in August, 0-3 vs Liverpool in September).
Oli McBurnie has scored in each of his last four Premier League home games for Sheffield United, though the Blades haven’t won a single one of these (D1 L3). The last player to score in five consecutive home league games for the club was David McGoldrick in 2018-19, while no player has done so for the Blades in the Premier League.
In Chris Wilder’s first 35 Premier League games as a manager, he earned 54 points (W14 D12 L9), seeing Sheffield United score 38 goals and concede only 33. In his last 39 games, he’s won just 19 points and lost 30 matches in that time (W5 D4) with a goal difference of -41 (scored 25, conceded 66).
Ollie Watkins netted his 50th Premier League goal for Aston Villa in their 3-1 defeat to Newcastle, taking his tally to 10 goals in 2023-24 and meaning he’s scored 10+ goals in all four of his seasons in the top-flight. He’s the first English player to achieve this in their first four seasons since Robbie Fowler (1993-94 to 1996-97) and Alan Shearer (first five from 1992-93 to 1996-97).
