Manchester Utd vs Sheffield Utd Prediction & Betting Tips (16 March)

Manchester Utd have been cooking with gas on their own patch of late, recording 11 consecutive home victories in the Premier League, one of which was a success against Sheffield Utd in their last H2H meeting. Speaking of the visitors, they have not been particularly strong on their travels of late, suffering 11 defeats in 17 trips, so this test is likely to prove too severe.

During this season, these two sides already appear to be running away with things at the top of the division, netting a staggering 62 goals between them in a combined 17 games. Not only that, but over 2.5 goals have been served up in 12 consecutive Manchester Utd fixtures at this elite level, as well as in seven Sheffield Utd matches on the bounce.

Sheffield Utd have been involved in some pretty entertaining encounters recently, with seven of their previous eight top-flight matches producing goals at both ends of the pitch. Given that eight of the last ten Manchester Utd games at this level have followed the same pattern, it would come as a bit of a surprise were either keeper to emerge from this contest with a clean sheet.
