Newcastle United vs Sheffield United Head to Head

The first time Sheffield United took on Newcastle United came in 1894 in an FA Cup fixture that the Magpies won.

The first match in the Premier League era took place in November 1993, and a brace from Peter Beardsley and goals from Andy Cole and Scott Sellars gave Newcastle United an easy 4-0 win at St James’ Park.

Their next league encounter took place over a decade later in March 2006, and the Blades got the upper hand this time, with Danny Webber scoring the only goal of the game midway through the second half.

In 2009/10, when both teams found themselves in the Championship, Richard Cresswell gave Sheffield United the lead before Danish winger Peter Løvenkrands leveled and Kevin Nolan scored the winner. Chris Hughton’s men won the title that year and secured a return to the top tier.

In June 2020, Sheffield United went in at the break goalless but then lost John Egan, who was sent off after 50 minutes. This led to an inevitable onslaught with goals from Allan Saint-Maximin, Matt Richie, and Joelinton, all scoring second-half goals.
