Sheffield United vs Bristol City Odds

The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

United Full-Time Odds Suggest Victory

Sheffield United are the -149 favourites on the 1x2 betting. That implies a 60% chance of triumphing in this Championship encounter according to the latest odds. Bristol City are the outsiders at +380 which suggests a lower likelihood of winning.

United -0.75 at -120 means you split your Asian Handicap stake between -0.5 and -1. You ideally want a win by two goals or more against City, although a one-goal victory means a half-stake return and a refund with the other half.

If you’re betting on Total Goals, the market is finding it hard to split Unders and Overs. If you’re looking to wager on Both Teams to Score, there’s not a lot of difference between Yes and No.

Hundreds of markets are made available when it comes to Championship matches, with the recommended football betting sites leaving no stone unturned in terms of available options.

Tyrese Campbell Heads First Goalscorer Market

You will find favourite Tyrese Campbell at +420 to be First Goalscorer and there’s also the chance to get +188 that he finds the net any time.
