Fleetwood Town face Sheffield United in the League Cup Round of 32 at Highbury Stadium on Wednesday evening. The Cod Army, seventh in League Two with points from six games, aim to continue their solid form against higher-division opposition.
Their recent results show a resilient side, unbeaten in their last outings. The sequence includes a draw at Newport County last weekend, where Aaron Loupalo-Bi netted the equaliser, and a home win over Shrewsbury Town. Manager Stephen Crainey is expected to rotate his squad, with the formation that featured against Newport a possible blueprint.
Sheffield United, preparing for their first competitive match of the new season, last played a pre-season friendly in July. Their likely lineup includes several experienced Championship players, presenting a significant challenge for the League Two outfit. Fleetwood will look to their home advantage, having won their last matches at Highbury without conceding a goal.
The winner of this tie will progress to the last 16 of the competition.
