Sheffield United 1 Albion 2

ALBION came from behind to claim an impressive 2-1 victory against Sheffield United in a high-tempo Sky Bet Championship encounter at Bramall Lane.

Kieran Gibbs drilled home a 76th-minute winner, his third goal of the season, to seal three hard-fought points from an open and entertaining Friday night clash in South Yorkshire.

Gareth Barry had pulled the Baggies level with a fine finish just before half-time, opening his account for 2018/19, to cancel out David McGoldrick's early strike on the counter-attack for the Blades.

Just one point and two places separated the two sides heading into the match but victory sees Albion leapfrog United and extends their unbeaten run to six matches heading into the festive period.
