Bramall Lane hosts the Premier League champions, Manchester City. Sheffield United is again one of the top contenders for getting relegated from the Premiership, but in games like these, they have nothing to lose, which makes them extremely dangerous.
Before Betting on Sheffield United vs. Manchester City
The Blades have two defeats in the opening two rounds, not looking good at all. Crystal Palace took all three points at Bramall on the opening day, 0-1, while the second loss came at City Ground in Nottingham, 2-1, where they suffered a last-minute dagger that took one point from their hands.
Paul Heckingbottom has limited options on the field and the roster. His team is full of flaws, and it’s no wonder why many see them in the Championship next year. The defense is shaky, while the offense doesn’t have too much talent. They rely on physicality and aggressiveness, but that doesn’t do the job often.
City didn’t play well against Newcastle but won that derby, 1-0. De Bruyne is missing, and that’s evident, yet Guardiola managed to kill the Magpies’ game and win through control of the pace and patience. Whatever you might think about City’s depth, they are going to miss De Bruyne, particularly now when Ilkay Gundogan isn’t in the team anymore.
Halland will have to work harder than ever because he needs to be the game-changer in terms of creating space for others and impacting the field like the Belgian midfielder.

Man City should have any problems dismantling the Blades, even though we stated that Guardiola has certain reasons for worrying. United is too easy of a task for the champs, who will run through Sheffield, scoring a couple of goals and returning to the Etihad with three points in their bag.
