Wolves vs Sheffield United Live Stats & Betting Odds
Wolves Prediction – Can Wolves close gap on ‘Big Four’?
Although they threw away a 3-1 lead away at Sporting Braga during the week in the Europa League to eventually draw 3-3, Wolves have still qualified for the knockout stages of the competition and they now turn their attentions back to the Premier League and the business of reducing the deficit on 4th placed Chelsea who are 7 points ahead of Wolves at the time of writing.
Wolves sit in 5th place above the likes of usual occupants Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham prior to this Sunday’s clash against 6th placed Sheffield United who have been the surprise package to date this season.
The hosts bring an 8-match unbeaten run in the Premier League into this encounter which includes wins against Watford, Manchester City, Aston Villa and Bournemouth, with the latter two victories being back-to-back in recent times.
Wolves possess a solid looking home record of 2-3-1 9/9 which includes just the one defeat on home turf this season which was to 4th placed Chelsea in a 5-2 defeat, but have recorded wins over Watford and Aston Villa afterwards and this will have boosted the hosts.
Sheffield United Prediction – Can Sheffield United extend unbeaten run on road?
There’s only two teams in the Premier League who still remain unbeaten away from home in the top flight – Liverpool and Sheffield United, and it’s United who’ll be on the road this weekend as they look to get something out of their trip to the west midlands this Sunday afternoon and extend their 6-match unbeaten run overall.
Wins at home against Arsenal and Burnley have been complemented by picking up points on a regular basis in the shape of draws with Watford, West Ham, Tottenham and Manchester United, but it’s worth mentioning that it’s best to keep the draw onside as far as possible where The Blades are concerned as Chris Wilder’s side have drawn 5 of their 6 away matches to date.
A stubborn looking away record of 1-5-0 7/5 has helped the visitors make a solid start in their return to the Premier League, but can The Blades find that cutting edge in the final third to grab all three points at Wolves this Sunday?

Betting Tips Verdict
