    Dangerous all over the pitch or have they been missing their key striker? Hopefully Willian Jose will change that.

    Sheffield United v West Brom (18:00 GMT)

    West Brom have won three of the past four meetings.

    Sheffield United have only registered one victory in their last six matches with West Brom (D2, L3).

    The Blades are hosting West Brom in the top flight for the first time since January 1973, when they won 3-0.

    Arsenal were Wolves' opponents when striker Raul Jimenez suffered his frightening fractured skull injury in November.

    "That will stay forever in our memories but that's not the focus now," Nuno Espirito Santo tells BT Sport.

    Wolves, who hope Jimenez will return to action this season, are winless in their past eight Premier League games.

    There was hope for Sheffield United despite their 1-0 defeat to Manchester City.

    Manager Chris Wilder said his side will "make life difficult" for the sides above them.

    Arsenal were solid against Manchester United on Saturday and are now unbeaten in seven in the league.

    Wolves are at the other end of the scale, form-wise, and have gone eight league games without a win, but they had some chances in their defeat by Crystal Palace and their new loan striker, Willian Jose, made some nice touches. He is decent and he will get better.

    Nuno Espirito Santo's side won at Emirates Stadium at the end of November - in the game where Wolves striker Raul Jimenez suffered a serious head injury - and I just have a feeling they will come out on top this time too.

    Prediction: 2-0

    Newcastle captain Jamaal Lascelles is expected to miss out because of a muscle injury, while the ill Ryan Fraser is another fitness doubt.

    Paul Dummett is available again and Allan Saint-Maximin could be in line for his first start since November.

    Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson says several unnamed members of his squad face fitness tests after suffering injuries against Wolves.

    James Tomkins and Jeffrey Schlupp are among the confirmed absentees.

    New signing Jean-Philippe Mateta is again in contention as he awaits his Eagles debut.

    Nuno Espirito Santo was very honest after Wolves' defeat to Crystal Palace.

    He said his side have a lot of concerns and "must improve faster".

    Grimsby Town brought in Sheffield United goalkeeper Jake Eastwood on loan yesterday but that was the only action.

    West Brom, meanwhile, signed Arsenal utility player Ainsley Maitland-Niles on loan for the rest of the season.

    Championship club Queens Park Rangers also took midfielder Sam Field on loan until the end of the campaign.

    Strongest bench from Arsenal I can remember seeing for some time. Auba, Martinelli and Odegaard to be used preferably.

    There were also a few outgoings at Wolves.

    League Two side Mansfield signed goalkeeper Jamie Pardington on loan, while League One Ipswich Town brought in right-back Luke Matheson until the end of the campaign.

    Burton Albion signed midfielder Terry Taylor for an undisclosed fee and forward Patrick Cutrone joined Spanish side Valencia on loan until the end of the season.

  15. 'Bad weekend for bottom three'published at 17:30 Greenwich Mean Time 2 February 2021

    Sheffield United v West Brom (18:00 GMT)

    BBC football expert

    It was a bad weekend for the bottom three, with Newcastle and Brighton both winning.

    At least both of these sides have been showing a bit of fight, though. It's clear they haven't given up hope yet.

    West Brom are still conceding, but not as many. They did well to stay in their game against Fulham on Saturday because they were completely outplayed in the first half, but they improved, and deserved their point.

    Sheffield United could not manage a repeat of their win at Old Trafford when they went to Etihad Stadium, but they made life difficult for Manchester City.

    The circumstances make this the biggest game of the season so far for both of them, because it is the chance to do damage to the teams around them as well as getting three massive points themselves.

    A draw would not do much good for either side, especially Sheffield United. I fear for the Blades anyway, but if they don't win this one then it could be curtains for them.

    Prediction: 2-0

    Arsenal

    Arsenal had a fairly busy day yesterday in the transfer window. By busy, I mean, they actually had some players moving.

    Among them was defender Shkodran Mustafi, who joined German side Schalke on a six-month deal.

    Meanwhile, Ainsley Maitland-Niles left for West Brom on loan for the rest of the season. Southampton and Leicester were also in contention to sign him.

    Joe Willock will be with Newcastle on loan for the remainder of the season too.

    Man Utd v Southampton (20:15 GMT)

    Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay was substituted against Arsenal on Saturday because of stomach cramps but he is fine to play.

    Eric Bailly may replace Victor Lindelof, who struggles to play twice a week due to an ongoing back problem.

    Southampton are likely to be without Theo Walcott, Ibrahima Diallo and Oriol Romeu because of fresh injuries.

    Kyle Walker-Peters, Jannik Vestergaard and Mohammed Salisu are among the players who were already sidelined.

    That's snow, not extremely low cloud, outside Bramall Lane. Looks like a cold one.

    The forecast is three degrees for kick-off - no, not the 70s West Brom legends, although the Baggies could do with them right now.

    How many pairs of gloves are we expecting tonight then?

    Not many, surely. Can't imagine Chris Wilder and Sam Allardyce standing for that type of nonsense.

    For almost a year, the routines and rituals of matchdays across Europe have been lost.

    That is not just the case for stadium-going regulars, but also for those supporters who ordinarily follow games from home.

    The five major European leagues have adopted different approaches to keeping fans interested. So which of these are working best? Journalists from across Europe give their views.

    Wolves v Arsenal (18:00 GMT)

    It's concerning times for Wolves fans. They have gone eight league games without a win (D3, L5) and have kept just one clean sheet in their last 14 games.

    They have also failed to score in seven of their 21 league games this season, just one fewer than they did in the whole of 2019-20.

    The good news is they are still nine points ahead of Fulham and the relegation zone but given their performances in recent seasons, they should be doing much better.

    .Image source, BBC Sport

    Meanwhile, Arsenal are enjoying a seven-match unbeaten league run, winning five of them.

    Mikel Arteta's side have only conceded 20 goals this season too, with only Manchester City letting in fewer.

    They have kept six clean sheets in their past eight fixtures in all competitions so they come to Wolves in form.
