Watford - Sheffield United predictions

Kickoff starts at 16:00 on 04/01/2025 played @ Vicarage Road Stadium refereed by David Webb

Though Watford definitely have a shot at winning this match, they’ll need to work for it. Sheffield United are somewhat stronger, but the home-field advantage may be what the hosts need to shift the balance in their favour.

The visiting team knows that beating Watford on their own turf will be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

’s performance in their previous away game left a lot to be desired. Some early concessions snowballed into a crushing 3:1 defeat at the hands of Queens Park Rangers .

While The Blades’s previous loss is bad news for them, it’s hard to say anyone was surprised. They were fighting against overwhelming odds as visitors, so the narrow 2:1 loss against Sunderland was in line with most betting predictions.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Watford’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

The two squads already met this season in the Championship. As expected, Sheffield United took the win, though the match was a bit close. Either way, Watford have no history of beating the odds in this particular matchup.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1 if you use the 1xbet sportsbook.
