- 0' The game is set. Sheffield United FC kicks off things out of here…
- 4' The referee shows Sheffield United FC player a Yellow card on 4.
- 9' With 0 assists to his name this season, John Lundstram is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Arsenal FC.

- 34' Arsenal FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Sheffield United FC backline.
- 39' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Nicolas Pepe suffering a number of foals already.
- 44' Sheffield United FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.

- 72' Enda Stevens, a Ireland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.

- 76' Muhamed Besic is ready to make an impact after coming on for Chris Basham at the 76 minute mark.
