We said: Hull City 1-2 Sheffield United

While Paul Heckingbottom's side are yet to win away from home this season, we still anticipate them coming away from Sunday's contest with all three points, even with the hosts expected to pose a threat, particularly with an in-form Estupinan. The Blades boast quality all over the pitch and have enough to outclass their hosts and put a fifth Championship triumph of the season on the board. Read more.
