Sheffield United vs. Leicester live stream: Watch Premier League online
By Warren Pegg
Sheffield United face Leicester at Bramall Lane on Saturday, Aug. 24. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
It’s been a happy return to the Premier League so far for Sheffield United following more than a decade away. Chris Wilder’s side deserved both to draw with Bournemouth on the opening day of the season and to beat Crystal Palace last Sunday.
Their overlapping center-backs are inspiring much discussion, and Liverpool-born midfielder John Lundstram scored the first Premier League goal at Bramall Lane in 12 years against Palace.
Four points from two games is promising, but they’ll come up against far better opponents this season, starting off today and continuing in the coming weeks with matches against Chelsea, Everton and Liverpool.
After being overrun at Chelsea early on last Sunday, Leicester came back strongly in the second half and could have won had James Maddison and Jamie Vardy not both spurned good chances. It was certainly a vast improvement on the drab goalless draw against Wolves in their opening match of the campaign.
