Sheffield United - Nottingham Forest predictions

Kickoff starts at 15:00 on 04/05/2024 played @ Bramall Lane refereed by Chris Kavanagh

While Sheffield United winning is still technically possible, we wouldn’t hold our breath. They are severely outmatched compared to Nottingham Forest, so even a draw result would be quite surprising.

Nottingham Forest are expected to have no hiccups going past Sheffield United in this match and betting odds offered by the world’s top bookmakers are there to confirm it.

The Blades managed to put up a fight in the first 45 minutes of their previous Premier League match but will have been pretty disappointed to have ended up losing the match Newcastle United even though they were always the underdogs in this particular matchup.

Forest are coming off from a crushing defeat at the hands of Manchester City. The top online bookmakers priced their victory at 11.50 despite the home-field advantage. This assessment turned out to be true: Nottingham Forest struggled to keep up from the get-go and ended up losing the match 0:2.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Forest’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Having lost too many matches in the Premier League this season, Sheffield United occupy the 20th place in the standings. The negative record is likely to continue this Saturday as they welcome Tricky Trees as huge underdogs.

Considering the end of the season is just around the corner, Forest are probably safe from relegation for the time being. Though they’re heading into an away match, they have 1 point of breathing room and favourable odds to earn more.

This matchup tends to go the obvious way. By that, we’re referring to the previous instance when these two squads clashed in the current season. Nottingham Forest walked away with a comfortable win.

Though the visitors are favourites here, it’s important to note they’ll be playing without Willy Boly, Neco Williams, Murillo Santiago Costa dos Santos, Nicolás Domínguez due to injury. On the flip side, the hosts will also be several players short – namely, George Baldock, Oliver McBurnie, Daniel Jebbison, Tom Davies, James Mcatee have also reported injuries.

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 2.45 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.

Betting tip (stake: 8/10): Over 3,5 goals 2.45 at 1xbet
Correct score prediction: 4:0
