Sheffield United are on a roll in the Championship at the moment - and loanee goalkeeper Dean Henderson is helping to turn Bramall Lane into a fortress.
Normal service was resumed at Bramall Lane last weekend, as the Blades recorded their SEVENTH consecutive Championship win at home, and their sixth straight clean sheet, in a 2-0 win over Rotherham United.

On loan from Manchester United, Henderson was among the top stoppers for league clean sheets last season when he enjoyed an impressive spell at League One Shrewsbury Town. Stepping up a division in 2018/19 has seen Henderson enjoy further success this term with Chris Wilders' promotion chasers - and he has now gone an incredible 577 minutes without conceding a Championship goal at Bramall Lane. Out of interest, the last player to find a way past Henderson was Derby County's Harry Wilson, who scored for Derby in their 3-1 defeat to the Blades back on Boxing Day.
Henderson doesn't have to wait long for an opportunity to try and extend his unbeaten streak - the stopper in line to start in his side's home clash against in-form Brentford tomorrow night. It promises to be some match-up - no side having scored more Championship goals in 2019 than the Bees.
