Manchester United vs Sheffield United Betting Tips
Manchester United continue to pass their examinations when it comes to being genuine Premier League title contenders, with the Red Devils having enjoyed slender wins away to Burnley and Fulham either side of a goalless draw at Anfield.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are back on their own patch for the visit of Sheffield United and United are strong betting favourites to beat opponents who looked nailed-on to be relegated from the English top flight this season.
Manchester United Huge Favourites to Beat Blades
On paper, this game seems like a mismatch and you won’t get rich betting on the home win although there are a number of alternative ways that you can find a more profitable betting angle and our tip is for United to win the game without conceding.
Our prediction is that the Red Devils will dominate possession and look to probe away at the Blades defence, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer having the attacking options to eventually find a breakthrough in this top flight encounter.
Edinson Cavani has been an excellent acquisition, with Paul Pogba also shining in a more advanced role and the performances of Bruno Fernandes continue to propel the United team forwards.
Can Sheffield United Get Anything at Old Trafford?
How can you possibly have any case for a Sheffield United away win at Old Trafford when the Yorkshire side have lost eight of their away games and drawn the other one?
Chris Wilder’s side got stuck in a rut early in the campaign and have the proverbial mountain to climb considering the gap is eleven points and the visitors have played two more games than 17th placed Burnley.
You can look at correct scorelines such as 2-0 and 3-0 in favour of United if you want to try and exact a bigger return although we don’t see Sheffield United creating many chances.
