Before Betting On Man United vs Sheffield United
The pressure has refused to ease on Erik ten Hag throughout this campaign for Man United, and the club’s performance in their recent FA Cup semi-final success over Coventry would have done little to assure his long-term future at the club. United threw away a 3-0 advantage in that clash, before scraping through against Championship opposition from the penalty spot.
Sheffield United could be relegated back to the second tier this week, depending on their results and the outcomes of matches involving Nottingham Forest and Luton. The Blades have struggled throughout the campaign, and they come into this round of matches after losing three of their last four matches.
United boasts the superior record in this fixture after winning eight of their last ten matches against the Blades. However, the only win for Sheffield United over that period did come on their previous visit to Old Trafford in January 2021. That success ended a seven-game losing sequence in this fixture for the Blades.
The Red Devils have been involved in some entertaining midweek matches this season, with 22 goals having been scored across their four matches this season. That has seen an average of 5.5 goals scored per game, which is the most of any team this season. Meanwhile, the Blades have lost their last five midweek matches in the Premier League.
