Erik ten Hag will be sweating on the fitness of four Manchester United stars ahead of this evening’s Premier League clash against Sheffield United. Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes and Scott McTominay are all doubts for the visit of Chris Wilder’s side, having picked up knocks during Sunday’s dramatic FA Cup win over Coventry City. Manchester United threw away a two-goal lead and had to play through extra-time before winning on penalties. United have enjoyed an extra day’s...
Southampton boss Russell Martin expects to see forward Ross Stewart return to fitness in time for next week's trip to Leeds United. The Saints have been forced to settle for a spot in the Championship play-offs this season with a run of three straight defeats, culminating in Saturday's 1-0 loss at home to Stoke City, ruling them out of automatic promotion contention. However, they still have to travel to Leeds next week and while they will have little to play for, they'll still be keen to head...
Burnley manager Vincent Kompany will be without Jordan Beyer and Ameen Al-Dakhil for Saturday’s trip to Sheffield United with the pair set to miss the remainder of the season through injury. Centre-back Beyer has been out since the end of December after picking up an injury against Aston Villa, with manager Vincent Kompany initially suggesting the issue was short-term. Yet the German has not featured since amid reports of a setback. Fellow defender Al-Dakhil has been out since January with an...

Eddie Howe has confirmed Newcastle United will be without Kieran Trippier and Migiuel Almiron when they take on Sheffield United this week. The Blades travel to the North East on Saturday afternoon needing a win to avoid the possibility of being relegated from the Premier League this weekend. Chris Wilder's side will be given encouragement by the fact that Newcastle will be some way short of being at full strength for the clash, with the game expected to come too soon for Nick Pope and...
Sheffield United’s remarkably bad luck on the injury front continued this week with three key men struggling for fitness ahead of this weekend’s trip to Newcastle United. Skipper Oli McBurnie missed Wednesday night’s trip to Manchester United with a groin injury, while Jayden Bogle and James McAtee both made way at Old Trafford with physical issues. McBurnie went for a scan this morning [Thursday] to determine the extent of the injury amid fears that his United career may be over, with just four...
Birmingham City boss Gary Rowett has high hopes of being able to call on veteran striker Lukas Jutkiewicz this weekend. The Blues, who dropped back into the relegation zone last weekend after Sheffield Wednesday's win over Blackburn Rovers, take on Huddersfield Town on Saturday afternoon in what can only be described as a do or die encounter for both teams. Birmingham are 22nd, a point behind the Owls, while Huddersfield are 23rd and three points adrift of safety. As such, both clubs know...
Leicester City will hope to have Ricardo Pereira available for Tuesday’s game against Southampton in a huge boost for Leeds United’s promotion rivals. Pereira was on the bench for Leicester’s 1-0 win over West Brom on Saturday but was not fit enough to feature, with manager Enzo Maresca conscious of managing minutes. Fellow doubts Jamie Vardy and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall both started but their Portuguese teammate did not feature - albeit stand-in right-back Hamza Choudhury proved crucial with three...
Sheffield Wednesday's relegation rivals Plymouth Argyle are hopeful of receiving an injury boost ahead of this weekend's clash with Millwall. It's a game that Plymouth need to win in order to bolster their chances of avoiding relegation on the final day of the Championship campaign. The Devon-based outfit are currently 20th, one place and one point better off than Danny Rohl's Wednesday, and two points above the dreaded drop zone. As such, they need all hands on deck this weekend at The Den and...
The Tractor Boys have been without the duo for several weeks but on the eve of their final three games, McKenna says they may be available once more. Hirst has missed all of Ipswich's football in 2024 after suffering a significant hamstring injury on Boxing Day, while Burns sustained a similar but less severe hamstring injury last month, missing the team's run-in so far. Both attackers have contributed materially to the way in which Ipswich play under McKenna and played a role in the club's...
