Match Preview

Romelle Donovan was the hero for Sheffield United on Tuesday night as his 93rd-minute winner proved enough to see off newly promoted Bolton at Bramall Lane. The Blades are still unbeaten in all competitions this season with three wins and three draws to their name.

Norwich looked to be gaining momentum with their dominant 4-1 win against recently relegated Burnley, but that momentum ended abruptly in midweek with a 1-0 away defeat to Stoke. The Canaries have lost three of their first four Championship matches this term after entering the campaign with plenty of optimism.
