Sheffield Utd vs Wolves — Tips & Analysis

Under 2.75: These two do not give each other much. The last 11 meetings average 2 goals a game, and most of them stayed quiet. Nothing in the table says that changes now. Thirteenth plays fourteenth with a single point between them, and both teams are short of players. Wolves are without Trippier, Mosquera and Bellegarde. Sheffield United are four short too, including Chong and One. Two short-handed squads usually means a slow game. Wolves are the tie specialists here. Six of their last 15 games ended level, more than any other result, and they score more than a goal a game. They also had seven days to get ready against Sheffield United's five, so they will be happy to keep the ball and take their time. Sheffield United have won 7, tied 3 and lost 4 of their last 14, and they are at their best hitting teams on the break. A 1-1 is the most likely finish, and two goals is what this matchup keeps producing. There is a clear worry, though. Bramall Lane has been the loose end of Sheffield United's season. They let in 2 goals a game there and 10 of their last 14 games had 3 or more goals. If those home habits win out over the head-to-head record, this gets busy. We still lean to the tight game.
