Tottenham vs Sheffield United Live Stats & Betting Odds
Tottenham Prediction – Can Tottenham replicate Champions League form?
A resounding 4-0 win away from home at Crvena Zvezda during the week in the Champions League should serve as a welcome boost for Tottenham who face a tricky fixture at their Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday when they play host to a stubborn Sheffield United outfit.
The win at Crvena Zvezda could be exactly what the doctor order for Maurico Pochettino’s men as they seek to transfer their Champions League form back into the domestic top flight for this clash with the hosts desperately needing to end a recent 4-match sequence without a win in the Premier League.
Defeats to Brighton and Liverpool along with disappointing draws with Watford and Everton have resulted in Tottenham occupying an uncharacteristic mid-table position in the Premier League as Spurs sit in 11th place ahead of this upcoming clash.
Indeed, with just 3 wins out of their first 11 matches of the season, Tottenham have had a tough start to this campaign and although they possess a reasonable looking home record of 3-1-1 10/4, the hosts have been far from their old selves as inconsistency has crept in.
Sheffield United Prediction – Can Sheffield United remain unbeaten away?
The current league position of 6th place for Sheffield United has been thoroughly deserved so far this season as The Blades have enjoyed a successful return to the top flight with Chris Wilder’s side surprising a few of the ‘old hands’ in the Premier League.
Recent wins over Everton, Arsenal and Burnley have helped maintain Sheffield United’s solid start to this new campaign, while the newcomers have also shown they’re no pushovers away from home either as The Blades still remain unbeaten on their travels with an away record of 1-4-0 6/4.
The only other team yet to taste defeat on the road in the Premier League are current league leaders, Liverpool, and along with a 4-match unbeaten run under their belts overall, Sheffield United have nicked points on the road at Bournemouth, Chelsea, Watford and West Ham along with their win at Everton.
Sheffield United should therefore be respected and stand a decent chance of at least avoiding a heavy defeat but also perhaps grab a share of the spoils too, against a vastly over-valued Tottenham side here.
Key-Facts – Tottenham vs Sheffield United
- Tottenham have won just 3 out of their first 11 matches of the EPL season
- Sheffield United still remain unbeaten away from home in the Premier League
- Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last 4 matches overall in the EPL
Betting Tips Verdict
Tottenham may win this one but the value lies with backing the visitors with the handicap here.
