Sheffield United - Aston Villa predictions

Upsets do happen in football and it’s fair to say a home win here would be a definition of the case. Sheffield United can count themselves lucky if they avoid getting completely destroyed by Aston Villa in this match.

The visiting side should be able to achieve victory in this clash against The Blades. Aston Villa are favourites to claim three points and at 1.65 betting odds they are a good pick for any sensible punter.

The Blades will not be too disappointed with their latest away defeat (Crystal Palace). It was a game they were expected to lose on a big margin anyway. But they still kept it alive for the first 45 minutes and gave their rivals a run for their money, with one goal deciding the entire match.

Aston Villa are coming off from a devastating 1:3 home defeat in the last round of the Premier League. While they were made clear favourites to claim three points, they went behind early in the game and never managed to recover.

The Blades’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 7 goals throughout their latest three Premier League matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Aston Villa have a notoriously bad track record when it comes to defending their posts. Though their recent streak of 5 conceded goals over 3 home games does not directly apply here, it’s still bad news.

After 23 rounds in the Premier League, The Blades are sitting in the relegation zone. With 5.60 betting odds on the home win, the situation is not getting any easier for the hosts who will have a big fish to fry this Saturday in their struggle for safety.

The Premier League season trudges on and the competition up tom heats up. Villa are currently occupying a Champions League spot but that won’t keep them satisfied for very long. Villa will be looking to join the title race and a win at Sheffield United would definitely help in that regard.

Villans are seen as the stronger team – after all, they’re expected to win this game despite the home-field disadvantage. However, they failed to defeat Sheffield United in the home game they played earlier in the season.

We’re in for an exciting showdown – due to a complete lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams have their full lineups at their disposal. Because they are more likely to win, though, this should work out in the visitors’ advantage.

An Over 3.5 Goals wager here can net you considerably better results than the Over 2.5 counterpart, and the probability of winning remains almost as strong. The 1 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.
