We say: Sheffield United 1-3 Nottingham Forest

Knowing that nothing they do from hereon in will affect their relegated status, Sheffield United should be released from their shackles and play with a bit more freedom against a leaky Nottingham Forest side dealing with some untimely defensive concerns. Santo's men may have cut wasteful figures against the champions, but they possess the attacking knowhow to successfully fight fire with fire this weekend and should glean the three points required to remain in control of their survival destiny, potentially taking Sheffield United's goals conceded column into the three figures too.
