After a brutal battle at Stamford Bridge, Liverpool away to Sheffield United early kick off on Saturday. No easy game in the premiership, if Liverpool wins this it would make it sixteen wins in a row and eight away wins in a row too. My prediction away win.

CHARLIE NICOLA HAS GONE FOR AWAY WIN; Sheffield United vs Liverpool - Saturday, 12.30pm Liverpool are coming through these tests without playing brilliantly. The Sheffield United team I watched the other week at Everton impressed me with the energy and pace they play at. They do struggle for goals though. It has been quite a jump up for Oli McBurnie. He works hard and grafts, but you are looking for a goal return here. The Blades are well drilled and organised - when I saw them at Goodison Park, their two wing-backs were going up - I even saw the centre-half in the box - and they didn't look like they were going to get caught on the counter-attack either. I can see Liverpool doing what they did at Chelsea here though. Sheffield United will be in their face and try to pin them back, but they need to worry about Roberto Firmino, and then the pace and skill of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah. Liverpool will gradually grind the game down. CHARLIE PREDICTS: 1-3 ()
LAWRO HAS GONE FOR HOME WIN TOO: Sheff Utd v Liverpool (12:30 BST) It's funny how the fixtures work out, with Sheffield United playing both Merseyside clubs within a week. The Blades got a great win over Everton at Goodison Park last time out, but it is asking a lot for them to beat Liverpool too. I like Chris Wilder's team a lot, but I don't really see them causing the Reds many problems - apart from at set-pieces - or keeping them quiet at the other end. Liverpool are on a roll at the moment, and they just keep on winning. Yes they rode their luck a bit defensively last weekend against Chelsea, but they also took their chances when they got them. Lawro's prediction: 0-2
