Manchester United is gearing up for a vital English Premier League showdown as they prepare to confront Sheffield United at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils narrowly escaped an FA Cup semifinal scare against Coventry, securing a dramatic victory on penalties to set up a final clash with local rivals, Manchester City. Now, under the leadership of manager Erik ten Hag, Man United shifts its focus back to its pursuit of sixth place in the EPL table, currently held by Newcastle.

On the other side of the pitch, Sheffield United, managed by Chris Wilder, faces almost certain relegation at a significant 10-point distance from safety with just 16 points on the board. A triumph over Manchester United would provide a rare glimmer of joy in an otherwise lackluster season for the Blades.

Manchester United is scheduled to host Sheffield United at Old Trafford on Wednesday, with the kickoff set for 8 p.m. BST. This equates to 3 p.m. ET, 12 p.m. PT, and 5 a.m. AEST on Thursday, April 25th, for viewers in Australia.
