Sheffield United vs Tottenham: Preview, predictions and lineups

Tottenham are aiming to secure their place in next season's Europa League when they visit Sheffield United to conclude their campaign on Sunday afternoon.

Many Spurs supporters were quick to rid themselves of the memories of Tuesday night; one where some were actively cheering against the Lilywhites in a bid to derail Arsenal's Premier League title challenge.

Manchester City's 2-0 victory in N17 means the Cityzens take a two-point lead heading into the final day.

Spurs have no title ambitions of their own and, despite their unproductive finish to the 2023/24 season, there's no denying that a foundation is there for Ange Postecoglou to build upon. A return to the Europa League next season should be regarded as a success.

However, defeat on Sunday would see them risk being usurped in the table by London rivals Chelsea. Sheffield Utd, though, were relegated in April and are one of the worst teams in Premier League history having amassed just 16 points all season. Chris Wilder's side have lost back-to-back games since their relegation was confirmed.

Here's preview of Sunday's clash at Bramall Lane.
