However as the great underdog that we've always been and in typical Millwall fashion we could just as easy pull it off and bag the three points although easy won't be a word to describe winning at Bramall Lane. United were the pre-season title favourites and Adkins, who gained promotion from League One with Scunthorpe and Southampton, has set them back on course after a difficult spell in September that saw them fail to win in four games. Sheffield United have injury concerns of their own and will be without David Edgar, Jay McEveley, Craig Alcock, John Brayford, James Wallace and Florent Cuvelier. Bob Harris and Ryan Flynn are closer to returns for the Blades, who moved up to fifth in League One, six points ahead of Millwall, after their 3-0 win over Fleetwood last Tuesday. We're unbeaten in three games and have lost only two of their last 10, but travel to Sheffield with a number of injury worries. For us, Carlos Edwards will miss just his second game for Millwall since he returned from a long-term injury as he is suspended for the Lions' clash with Sheffield United this Saturday. Midfielders Jimmy Abdou and Ed Upson are already out and Shaun Williams is also a doubt after he went off in the 50th minute of the 1-1 draw at Bloomfield Road suffering from back spasms. That leaves Neil Harris worryingly short of midfield experience. The four that finished the contest at Blackpool had an average age of 21.5. Jamaica international Shaun Cummings should come in at right-back, while Ben Thompson could partner George Saville in midfield if Williams, who will be given every chance to proves his fitness, misses out. Fred Onyedinma, who came on for Lee Gregory against the Seasiders, is also in contention to start for the first time in four games. That would likely mean Steve Morison and Aiden O’Brien resuming their partnership up front.

This is a big win brissy given their title favourite status and will undoubtedly be up there end of the season. This was our best performance this season keeping them at arm's length for long periods.
Deffo mate and we're moving in the right direction, winning our game in hand next Tuesday at home to Donny will put us level with 6th spot.
Think a lot of clubs in the Championship would have taken 2-1 against the Blunts away from home. Good result, and you're in the top half
