Newcastle have won seven of their last eight league games against Sheffield United (L1), with the exception being a 1-0 away loss in the Premier League in January 2021.
Sheffield United have lost three of their four Premier League away games against Newcastle, failing to score in each defeat. The exception was a 1-0 victory under Neil Warnock in November 2006.

Newcastle have lost none of their eight Premier League home games against promoted sides under Eddie Howe (W3 D5), with their last such defeat coming against Leeds United under Steve Bruce in January 2021.
Newcastle have scored in all 17 of their Premier League home games this season, with their 43 goals in total their most at St James’ Park in a top-flight campaign since 1996-97 (54).
