Sheffield United vs Ipswich Recent Form Analysis

The Blades suffered a shock FA Cup defeat at home to League One Mansfield Town before losing away at Charlton in the league last time out. They will be without both Japhet Tanganga and Dijbril Soumare who were both sent off in that game. Despite their recent blip, Sheffield United have scored 11 goals in their last five matches.

Ipswich Town have been flawless in the calendar year and added a win over Bristol City to their collection on Tuesday evening. Kieran McKenna's side have scored 11 goals in their last five matches (all competitions), whilst only conceding twice in this period. The concern here is their questionable away from, having won just four times in 12 attempts.

The previous matchups between the two sides at Bramall Lane have been won by Sheffield United on both occasions, though Ipswich propose a significant threat this time around.
