Sheffield United Women set for Man Utd test but real focus is on weekend

Sheffield United Women will face Manchester United on Wednesday night in the Subway Women's League Cup at the Progress With Unity Stadium in Leigh. However, manager Stephen Healy stated that the team's primary focus remains on their upcoming league fixture against Durham Women on Sunday. The Blades are prioritizing league survival after starting the season without a point across their opening three matches.

The team enters the cup tie following a 4-1 defeat to Newcastle United over the weekend. Manager Stephen Healy confirmed he plans to rotate his squad against Manchester United to offer minutes to different players while preparing for the crucial match against fellow strugglers Durham.
