The Blades claimed a first win of the season at the 19th attempt with a 3-2 third-round victory over resilient Sky Bet League One opponents.

Rock-bottom United are 12 points from safety with almost half of the Premier League campaign completed, but Wilder says rediscovering the winning habit will benefit them before Newcastle's midweek trip to Bramall Lane.
