Sheffield United vs Man City Predictions and Top Betting Tips

Sheffield United vs Man City should be a pre-decided contest. Here are our predictions.

Both Teams To Score Prediction: No

We do not think that Sheffield have what it takes to score against Man City in this game. This is the strongest team in the world and their defense seems to be even better than before. On the other end, Sheffield had the worst possible start in the new season with two defeats, both of which against some of the weakest teams in the league right now. If they score, it would be a surprise or some sort of a free kick or penalty.

Team To Score In Both Halves: Man City

Man City are a team that traditionally plays at full strength at the start of the game and then shifts to a lower gear after they have some goals passive. We expect them to score in the early minutes and Erling Haaland is another good pick for a market. He should score against this opponent as their defense is nowhere near the necessary level. We think that there are many options here – Man City to score in both halves, Man City to win at HT, Erling Haaland to score anytime, etc.

Correct Score Prediction: 3-0 to Man City

Man City are more than capable of scoring a lot more than three goals but we do not expect it to happen. This is a good scoreline for them and they have no reason to try and score more, especially if they have get an early advantage. When we compare the Sheffield United vs Man City line ups, we have one of the weakest squads in the PL against the strongest squad in the world.

Sheffield United vs Man City Team Previews

Sheffield United Preview

Sheffield United played an incredible campaign in the Championship and managed to get promoted back to the elite after only a single season. They were one of the two top teams and had the third best attack in the league. We think that they will have their chances against the weaker teams in the Premier League but also may be a problem for the elite clubs.

Man City Preview

The Treble winners will be ready for yet another difficult season and it seems like they will start with the best they have. Man City haven't got a single injured player, which is incredible for the start of the season. It will be interesting to see them play with all the new transfers but we still think that no team will be able to match them this season.
