Sheffield United claims cagey Steel Derby
Sheffield United joined leader Sunderland at the top of the EFL Championship table after a hard-fought 1-0 win against local rival Sheffield Wednesday in a cagey Steel Derby.
After a goalless first half, Tyrese Campbell latched on to a pass from Callum O'Hare and slotted past Wednesday goalkeeper James Beadle for the winner five minutes into the second period.
This was the Blades' sixth consecutive clean sheet at Bramall Lane and their fourth straight win home or away, and sees them go level with Sunderland on 31 points from 15 matches.
Meanwhile, Burnley is four points behind the top two after it snatched a last-gasp 1-0 victory against visitor Swansea City.
Jay Rodriguez's stoppage-time penalty secured the points for the Clarets at Turf Moor, ending a four-match winless run and helping them climb to fourth in the table.
West Bromwich Albion is a place and two points behind Burnley after ending its own barren sequence.
Early goals from Karlan Grant and Josh Maja were enough to defeat Hull City 2-1 and register West Brom's first win in nine matches.
