Sheffield United vs Boro LIVE Championship match updates from ...

Middlesbrough are looking to turn around their poor form after a mini reset following last Monday's defeat to Sunderland.

Boro take on Sheffield United in a tough away game at Bramall Lane after a nine-day break following that derby defeat. Michael Carrick's side come into the game off the back of just three wins in the last 13 games and desperately need to turn around their form to keep their top-six battle alive.

They'll have to be at their best to do so in this one though. Sheffield United currently sit second in the Championship, having lost only five of their 31 games to date. In beating Portsmouth at the weekend, former Boro boss Chris Wilder was critical of his side's performance, and will want improvements in this one.
