Sheffield United vs West Brom - Billy Sharp pushing for Sheffield United start
Posted Thursday, December 13, 2018 by PA
Sheffield United’s top-scorer Billy Sharp will be pushing for a start against West Brom after getting a goal off the bench away to Reading last weekend.
Sharp got his 12th league goal of the campaign at the Madejski Stadium, opening the scoring in the 83rd minute as the Blades left it late in a 2-0 victory.
Chris Wilder should have more options upfront with Leon Clarke and Ben Woodburn expected to come back into contention after minor injuries.
United are hoping last week’s win means the end of a minor blip – it was only their second win in six – and they can resume their promotion push.
Hal Robson-Kanu could return for West Brom as they play Friday night football for a second week running.
The Welsh forward missed last week’s 2-2 draw against Aston Villa, a result which allowed the Blades to leapfrog West Brom a day later.
Robson-Kanu has returned to training along with Kyle Bartley and James Morrison, with all three in contention to feature.
Bartley has not appeared since October due to a knee injury.
