Sheffield United v Brighton: match preview

Sheffield United face Brighton now officially relegated after appearing checked out on this campaign for some time. Graham Potter would surely still have been confident of a positive result if United were still fighting but now his side should have a very good chance of taking an important set of three points as they look destined to glide above a relegation dogfight. Never say never and all that but Brighton were brilliant in grinding a draw out of Chelsea and look set to improve next season if they can hold onto Potter. Graham Searles
