Both teams were eliminated from the FA Cup last week, with the Canaries losing 4-0 at home to Brighton & Hove Albion and the Blades losing by a slim margin to Cardiff City. With both teams hoping to advance, they can now concentrate on the league.
The two battled to a 1-1 tie at Carrow Road earlier in the season.Josh Sargent had taken the lead just nine minutes before Oliver Arblaster equalized.
This season, both goal scorers have struggled with injuries; Sargent only returned to play last week after groin surgery.Due to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury that will keep him out of action for the season, Arblaster will not play in the rematch.
With a record of five victories and three draws in their last eight league encounters, United has a respectable record against Norwich. Despite losing to Sheffield Wednesday in November, Norwich’s record against Yorkshire opponents isn’t that bad—they’ve only lost one of their last 10 games against the county.
Chris Wilder made a lot of substitutions during the loss to Cardiff last time out in order to safeguard some of his players who were in danger of being hurt. A number of players are making a strong recovery, and some are almost included in his weekend plans. Although they haven’t materialized yet, the management did hope that some new hires would have arrived by now.
Norwich played some of their first-team stars against the Seagulls, but now they’re sweating over the fitness of some of their players. Marcelino Nunez came off with an injury, and they’re awaiting scan results. Forson Amankwah is another player who picked up a knock.
With all that in mind, the Star has rounded up the latest injury news from both sides below.
