LONDON (Reuters) - Sheffield United have managed to avoid one unwanted Premier League record but Chris Wilder's side are on course for another as relegation back to the Championship looms.

The bottom club's humiliating 6-0 home thrashing by Arsenal on Monday left them level on 13 points with Burnley who also look near certainties for the drop.

Both have surpassed the 11 points Derby County managed in 2007-08 to become the worst team in Premier League history.
