Sheffield United - Manchester City betting tips and odds

There is a big reason why Sheffield United are given 18.00 to win this game. They stand little to no chance emerging victorious against Manchester City and anything but their defeat would be considered a miracle.

Sheffield United lost their previous Premier League game against Nottingham Forest , but they did so as clear underdogs. They played as visitors against considerably stronger opposition, who secured an early lead which lead into a narrow 2:1 loss for Sheffield United.

The last Premier League game was just another day in the office for City. They travelled to Burnley to grab an easy win and succeeded. Having taken the lead early on, they never changed the tempo which resulted in a comprehensive 0:3 win.

The price of 1.20 for an away win is at least in part based on how the two squads performed the last time they played against each other. The Sky Blues ended that match with a notable goal difference, though this record is from the previous season of the Premier League.

Though some punters may prefer more exciting options, the Under 3.5 Goals market is a solid opportunity for this fixture. It offers a surprisingly solid balance between risk and betting value – though the returns on their own aren’t much to look at.
