Chris Wilder's quest to haul Sheffield United off the bottom of the Championship takes the Blades east to Hull City on Saturday lunchtime (12:30 BST).
Tuesday's 2-1 home defeat to Southampton was a seventh in eight league games for United, who are still only three points adrift of fourth-bottom Oxford United, albeit with a goal difference of -12, by far the worst in the division, though the only side to have conceded more than their 15 is Saturday's hosts, with 16.
Wilder will face a familiar face at the MKM Stadium as Oli McBurnie - who spent five seasons at Bramall Lane - is leading the line for the Tigers and is in the best form of his career.
