Wolves vs Sheffield United Analysis
Whilst Wolves are enjoying their Premier League season to the max, Sheffield United are struggling hugely, making this a massive game for all EPL betting sites.
Wolves
Gary O’Neill has done a stellar job at Wolves, with the side from the West Midlands fully immersed in the mid-table battle this term. Wins over Chelsea, Manchester City and most recently Tottenham, have underlined just how well Wolves have performed this season and they look to be fearing nobody currently. Having to play the football here and not being able to counter at till, may make life tricky for them at times but they have plenty of confidence flowing through their ranks.
Team news: Star striker Matheus Cunha is the only man missing for Wolves in this one.
Wolves Predicted Lineup:
Jose Sa, Max Kilman, Craig Dawson, Toti Gomes, Nelson Semedo, Hector Bueno, Mario Lemina, Tommy Doyle, Pablo Sarabia, Pedro Neto & Hwang Hee-chan.
Sheffield United
Having beaten Luton Town a fortnight ago, the picture looked to be improving for Sheffield United but the Blades succumbed to yet another thumping home loss, this time to Brighton, to affirm their position as relegation favourites with many Premier League betting sites. They have picked up some of the best results on the road and they will be able to play with freedom here, but this looks to be a tall order for Chris Wilder’s side.
Team news: Mason Holgate is suspended following a red card last week, whilst George Baldock is an injury doubt.
Sheffield United Predicted Lineup:
Wes Foderingham, Jaydon Bogle, Jack Robinson, Anel Ahmedhodžić , John Egan, Gustavo Hamer, Vinícius Souza, James McAtee, Cameron Archer, Ben Brereton-Diaz & Oli McBurnie.
