Sheffield United vs Liverpool History

The 1894/95 First Division was the first season which housed a fixture between these two teams. Both of their meetings that season ended with a 2-2 scoreline.

In 1899, Sheffield Utd and Liverpool met in the FA Cup semi-finals. The Blades advanced to the final and subsequently beat Derby County to lift this trophy for the first time.

Since then, Sheffield Utd have captured the FA Cup thrice more. The latest of these came in 1925. Liverpool, meanwhile, have collected a wide range of trophies since being founded in 1892.

19 times have the Reds been champions of England, and six times the winners of the FA Cup. The Anfield club has conquered Europe’s premier club competition on six occasions, coupled with several other continental titles including the UEFA Super Cup.

There are a few players who have played for each of the clubs involved in this fixture.

• Phil Thompson was a Liverpool supporter since childhood and he signed for the club as a 17-year-old. The ex-defender spent 13 years at Anfield, amassing more than 450 appearances. A 42-cap England international, Thompson joined Sheffield Utd in 1984 before retiring two years later.

• Ian Rush is best known for his time with Liverpool. The legendary Wales striker was loaned to Sheffield Utd in 1988, from Newcastle United, towards the end of his playing career.

• Former Scotland midfielder Don Hutchison was a Liverpool player in the early 90s, before moving to Sheffield Utd, from West Ham, in 1996.

• In 2020, Sheffield Utd signed Rhian Brewster for a fee in the region of £23,5m. The striker came through the Liverpool junior teams before exploring a move away from Merseyside.

With more than 140 meetings behind them, these clubs have mostly met in the English top flight. However, in recent years, the Blades have not featured prominently in the Premier League, hence just a handful of clashes with Liverpool in the 21st century.

Since the inaugural Premier League season in 1992/93, Liverpool have spent every season in England’s top division. Conversely, the 2023/24 campaign was only the sixth in which Sheffield Utd were part of the top flight throughout the Premier League era.

Sheffield United vs Liverpool Head-to-Head

When this fixture was contested in the first season of the Premier League, the hosts ran out 1-0 winners. The teams later played out a goalless draw on Boxing Day 1993.

Beyond that, Liverpool did not visit Bramall Lane in a league fixture for more than 12 years. Sheffield Utd achieved promotion to the Premiership in 2006, but survived just a single season before returning to the EFL Championship. This brought about another decade-plus away from the top flight for the Blades.

The Sheffield-based side was once again restored to the top division in 2019. In the subsequent league campaign, a 1-0 scoreline gave Liverpool a first league win at Bramall Lane since 1990.

As of the end of the 2022/23 season, Sheffield United’s last league victory over Liverpool was in 1994.
