Action continues in round 20 of the EFL Championship as Sheffield United and Norwich City square off at Bramall Lane on Tuesday. Having failed to win the last nine meetings between the two teams, the Canaries will head into the midweek tie looking to get one over the hosts and secure their first away victory since August.
Sheffield United made light work of Stoke City on Saturday as they stormed to a 4-0 victory when the two sides squared off at Bramall Lane.
The Blades have won four games on the bounce in the league, scoring 13 goals and keeping three clean sheets, having picked up just one point from the four matches preceding this run.
This upturn in form has seen Sheffield surge from the doldrums, as they currently sit 18th in the Championship table with 22 points from 19 games, five points above the relegation zone.

Before that, the Canaries snapped their run of 13 straight league matches without a win on November 29, when they edged out Queens Park Rangers 3-1 at Carrow Road.
Norwich City have picked up 13 points from their 19 league games so far to sit 23rd in the standings, five points behind 21st-placed Oxford United just outside the relegation zone.
