Constituency which was held by Nick Clegg until 2017 is thought to be winnable by the party.
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey said his party was "campaigning hard" to win back the Sheffield Hallam seat.
The constituency's dramatic recent history included the election of Jared O'Mara, who defeated Clegg in 2017.Sir Ed told the BBC: "Lots of people who were thinking of voting Labour will actually switch to the Liberal Democrats because they know Sheffield is going to have a lot of Labour MPs." When asked whether he was worried the Liberal Democrats would be squeezed out by Labour and the Conservatives, Sir Ed said the polls told a different story."In vast parts of the south of England and the south west, we’re the only ones to vote for if you want to get rid of the Conservatives."
