Sheffield United - Watford betting tips and odds

Though Sheffield United are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The away team’s chances of winning this Saturday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Sheffield United, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

The Blades have no time to mourn the last round’s defeat even though it might seem as they had a chance to get away with a positive result from a difficult Championship trip. Namely, they held their ground for the first 45 minutes and only lost the game by a one-goal margin (Millwall).

The visitors are here on the back of a tough but successful matchup with West Bromwich Albion, which they played as the home team. Their early lead eventually turned into a narrow but convincing 3:2 HT/FT victory.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this Championship clash tells a different story. The Blades lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

Saturday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

A Home Win at the odds of 1.91 is the most likely outcome here with decent value and a strong probability of success. This doesn’t seem like a good opportunity to take unnecessary risks.
