Premier League: Man Utd Vs Sheffield Utd Predictions (24/04/2024)

In Wednesday night's Premier League match between Manchester United and Sheffield United at Old Trafford, we've uncovered some predictions. The Blades are currently in last place in the ranking and suffered a heavy loss to fellow relegation contenders Burnley. In contrast, Manchester United advanced to the FA Cup final on Sunday by defeating Championship side Coventry City in a penalty shootout.

Head-to-head and Previous Matches

Erik ten Hag's Manchester United team reached their second consecutive FA Cup Final on Sunday. Still, they had a tough time getting there after letting a three-goal lead slip and ultimately requiring penalties to defeat second-tier Coventry. Despite securing another trip to Wembley, the miserable Red Devils have failed to inspire much enthusiasm, as their six-game winning streak came to an end in a 3-3 draw. Regardless, they should be able to win their next match against Sheffield United, who are cruising to the Championship, and go back on track to maintain their European qualifying hopes.

Following Saturday's 4-1 home loss to relegation rivals Burnley, the Blades have lost six of their previous nine matches, drawn three, and are now in last place in the Premier League, 10 points from safety. Still, with nine goals scored in their past six games, Chris Wilder's squad should be able to cause problems for Manchester's defence, which has been terrible at times this season.

Our Predictions

Bruno Fernandes to score anytime

Although injuries have been a major factor—the hosts might be missing as many as six starting defenders again on Wednesday—the truth remains that they have let in fifteen goals in their last six games. Betting for Manchester United to win and both teams to score seems like a good idea since they should have more than enough talent to beat the Blades. However, they shouldn't anticipate an easy ride.

A 3-1 accurate score prediction seems likely given that Sheffield United have let in three or more goals in three of their previous five games and that the hosts have scored precisely three goals in two of their past four games. After scoring again over the weekend, bringing his season total to thirteen, Bruno Fernandes seems to be a solid bet in the anytime goalscorer market. In his previous four games, he has scored once and added an assist, including at Wembley.
