Premier League Matchday (9): Sheffield United vs Manchester United – Betting Odds and Predictions
Exciting Saturday Match at Bramall Lane – Kickoff at 8:00pm GMT
Sheffield United’s Premier League campaign has been lackluster, with only one point earned prior to this upcoming match.
Paul Heckingbottom will be determined to change his side’s recent disappointing run of form as they face their next match. Losing three matches in a row is not something he wants to see happen. Sheffield United, under Heckingbottom’s management, have suffered seven losses in their last eight meetings, which is a terrible run of form for any club. However, they will be hopeful of turning things around. Currently sitting twentieth in the League with just one point, Sheffield United’s record consists of 0 wins, 7 losses, and 1 draw. Playing at home, they have drawn one game and lost three fixtures. A victory in their upcoming match would give them 4 points.
Manchester United enters this match with a solid 12 points in their pocket.
Man U’s recent 2-1 victory against Brentford at Old Trafford is a significant boost for the team. Despite a challenging run of three losses in five matches, Erik ten Hag understands the importance of turning things around. Currently sitting in tenth position with 12 points, Man U has won four matches and lost four fixtures in the league. When playing away, they have won one game and lost two. If they secure a win, Manchester United will have accumulated 15 points this season.
