Sheffield Utd vs Preston: Top Free Betting Tips

Sheffield United takes on Preston North End in this highly anticipated Championship clash. Both teams have different agendas in this meeting, Sheffield looking to finish on a high while Preston remains in search of the elusive playoff slots.

Match Result Prediction: Sheffield Utd to Win

The Blades routed Preston in the reverse fixture, earning a 2-0 victory at Deepdale. They would be looking to complete the double to finish the season with the highest points tally for a runner-up. They have won their last three Championship fixtures with ease and should get a victory over the Lillywhites who are winless in the same period.

Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

Three of the last five meetings between these sides have seen Over 2.5 Goals during the 90 minutes of action. Preston shared the spoils on two occasions and came up short in one of these instances. In their last five outings, they have scored 7 goals and will look to force the issue in search of a win. Sheffield has their own firepower to respond with and has scored eight goals in the same period. With both sides showcasing their scoring ability in recent outings and H2H duels, we are backing an Over 2.5 Goals conclusion to this Round 45 meeting.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Sheffield Utd

Despite differing results, both sides have scored freely in their recent outings. We should see goals at both ends of the pitch, more on the side of Preston given their comparatively poor defensive showings. The Lilywhites have conceded 8 goals in their last five outings while the Blades have shipped in three in the same period. Taking their goal-scoring and conceding form into context, we anticipate a 2-1 win for Sheffield United.
