Some basic thing: stay on the ground and don't get grabbed/dash attack or anything like that or she'll combo the hell out of you. Wait for an opportunity to get in and up throw to juggle her hard and don't let her down if you can. To edge guard her, edgehog so she'll forced to go on stage and then do whatever you want to her, just watch if she decides to trick you and go for the ledge anyway.

Actually, just check this guide out lol http://smashboards.com/threads/compilation-of-matchup-guides.341532/

There's not much you can do to safely approach Sheik. In general, whichever char overcommits to something unsuccessfully will get punished pretty hard. Marth's game should be a lot of dash dancing, d-tilts, grabs, and I like to throw in the occasional side-b (combos into u-tilt.) Once you get Sheik in the air you can space some fairs, u-tilts, u-air, etc. She doesn't really have a lot of options coming down, just don't get hit by one of her aerials. I'm pretty sure that you're supposed to DI away when she f-tilts you or else she can combo you pretty badly. Also, mix up your DI on her downthrow so she doesn't know if she gets the bair or the fair.

ban DL64 for starters.

you generally want to grab her in neutral and be VERY clean with your punishes.
