Sheffield United v Millwall Betting Preview – League One 28th March 7.45pm

League One leaders Sheffield United had a four-match winning streak snapped when they went to Oldham on the weekend and found the home side in a resilient mood, so the Blades had to settle for a point in that one. It gave Bolton the chance to close the gap on them to four points, though. So United will want to deliver maximum points in this one and they could be catching Millwall at the right time, with the Lions crashing to a defeat against the relegation-threatened Swindon on the weekend. Three points would edge Millwall right into the play-off mix, though.

Sheffield United v Millwall Betting Tips

Sheffield United came through a tough game at Boundary Park against Oldham on the weekend, landing a 1-1 draw. Some see that as two points lost, but the Blades will see it as a point gained against an in-form side. However, it has increased the pressure on the Blades at the top of the table as the in-form Bolton cut their lead to four points now. So Sheffield United need some kind of response to that on home soil when they host Millwall in midweek. United are on a ten match unbeaten streak of form in League One and they have bent a little lately, but they haven’t broken. They are W3 D1 in their last four on home soil in the league now, and at Bramall Lane, they have posted a great W13 D3 L3 record in the league this season. So they are a strong side, but they haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last five outings now. Both teams to score at Coral is trading at a price of 10/11.

Sheffield United went down 2-1 at The Den earlier in the league season and they are in a head to head slump against the Lions. The Blades have lost their last three on the bounce against Millwall now and are winless in four against them. So stack that up and this isn’t the easiest of home games for them. Billy Sharp is a 4/5 Coral anytime goalscorer option for the match who has four league goals in his last four home games. You can picture this being a really competitive battle and over 2.5 goals is a good 9/10 price for the match up. The Blades have only gone W2 D1 L4 in seven midweek home games this season. Can they send a firm message off to Bolton by landing a good home win in this one?

Millwall went down against the relegation-threatened Swindon on the weekend, conceding at the death in that one. That snapped a massive sixteen match unbeaten streak of form that they were on and recently they put together a nine-match clean sheet sequence too. Boss Neil Harris wasn’t a happy man after that Swindon loss and you can be assured that they will be fired up because of that, for this one. Three points would put the Lions on level points with the current sixth placed side Southend, so this is a big game for them. However, their form out on the road recently is just W1 D5 L2 in their last eight, so maybe a win is out of their reach at Bramall Lane. Overall, Millwall’s away form in the league this season is just W5 D6 L7. The Lions have come away with a W2 D2 record in their last four visits to Bramall Lane, though.

Sheffield United v Millwall Predictions

Sheffield United home win: Sheffield United’s home form speaks for itself, so that is where the value is in this one. They survived a tough game at Oldham on the weekend who have been in good form, but with Millwall on a three-match winless streak in the league and having crashed badly at Swindon on the weekend, combined with their poor away form, the Blades should pick up maximum points.
