Sheffield United
We’re betting on Sheffield United to secure a 1-0 winning scoreline. Odds of +650 can be taken and it’s great fun to predict a correct score and hopefully land a winner.

Patson Daka (Leicester) has failed to record a shot on goal in two of the past ten league home games. There’s a reasonable prospect that he will fall short of the mark, with odds of -125 on offer that he doesn’t cover the Shots on Target line.

Callum O'Hare (United) has netted three goals in his past ten Championship matches. When it comes to him scoring, we think that the +550 available is attractive when betting on the Anytime Goalscorer market.
