Sheffield United host Derby County in the English EFL Cup 1/32 finals. The match will be played on Tuesday, August 24th at Bramall Lane (Sheffield)
In the previous season, Sheffield United played in the Premier League but couldn’t stay there, taking the last line. The Blades started poorly in the current Championship, gaining only one point in four matches. In the last round, the team lost to Huddersfield at home with a score of 1-2. In that match, Sheffield United equalized in the first added minute and conceded in the fifth. At the previous stage of the League Cup, the Blades were able to beat Carlisle United at home with a score of 1-0. Such a failure at the start of the season can be attributed to the frustration after relegation from the elite.

Derby County scored five points in four rounds of the Championship, which allows the club to take a place in the middle of the league standings. In the last round, the Rams gained a home goalless draw against Middlesbrough. In the 1/64 finals of the League Cup, Derby County dealt with Salford, defeating the opponent only in a penalty shootout (3-3 in regulation time).
The opponents crossed paths a year ago in a friendly game, and then Sheffield United won 2-0. The last official matches took place back in 2018, when the clubs exchanged home victories. Even in spite of not the best shape, the hosts are considered the favorites of the upcoming game. Both teams show a low level of football this season. Most likely, we will see a low pace of the game and a few dangerous moments. There is no reason to wait for a goal show.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
