Bristol City will target back-to-back wins for the first time in 2026 when they host Sheffield United on Monday. Going into this game, Bristol are 13th on 54 points, three ahead of 17th-placed Sheffield. Read on to find our prediction for the match.
Bristol have a new man in charge, the experienced Roy Hodgson. The former England manager had an immediate impact as the Robins beat Charlton in the last game.
That was their first in seven. The next ambition for Hodgson will be to end a poor home run that has the team on four losses in five games and drawing the other.
Sheffield United will be looking to extend Bristol’s poor run at home as they improve their own. The Blades come into this game straight from a 3-3 draw with Swansea, which left them winless in five (2L, 3D).
It was a sobering outing at home as Sheffield let go of a 3-1 lead to only collect one point. Home matches haven't been really rewarding of late, failing to win the last four.
That’s why an away game at this point is welcome. Sheffield’s recent away run has returned two wins in the last four, and they’ve also beaten Bristol in three straight visits to Ashton Gate.

Our Bristol City vs Sheffield United Prediction
Sheffield United have won twice in their last four away matches, perhaps a good warmup for this encounter. The Blades won each of their last three visits to Bristol City and are unbeaten in four such away matches. Bristol have actually won just two of the 10 matches they hosted against Sheffield United.
Looking at their current home form, there isn’t much promise of a change. The Robins have lost four times in five home games, only drawing with Wrexham during that run. Our prediction for Bristol City v Sheffield United is that Sheffield United wins.
