Derby vs Sheffield United: the head-to-head

Derby’s recent encounters with Sheffield United have been starkly uneven, with the Blades securing four victories to Derby’s two, all within the Championship since 2021. Across the six meetings, the teams have exchanged a total of twelve goals, averaging two per game, and the matches have been evenly split in terms of scoring: Derby and Sheffield United have both netted six. The fixture has seen a 50 per cent share of games with at least two goals and a 33 per cent share of those with three or more, while both sides scored in only a third of the encounters. The latest clash on 2 May 2026 ended 1-2 in favour of Sheffield United, played at Derby’s ground. Home and away records mirror each other: Derby won once at home and once away, losing the other two in each venue. Their next meeting is scheduled for 24 October 2026.
