United control their own destiny, sitting in sixth place with five games to go, and three of those are at home – starting with the clash with Paul Ince’s side, who are 21st in the table but started in decent shape lately. , opening an eight-point gap between them and the bottom three.
United may have some selection headaches, especially if Chris Basham is declared fit. The centre-half missed two months of action but returned to training this week.
If United can win early in the game, it could be a tough afternoon for Reading. Danny’s prediction: Sheffield United 2, Reading 0.
