Our Manchester City vs Sheffield United Prediction

Sheffield United is the best performing side among the newly promoted and they have really reaped from their away run. They will be hoping to stretch that further on Sunday, when they meet Manchester City. This will however be a tough ask, looking at City’s form, and especially at home. City have seven wins and two losses in their last 10 home matches. They have scored two or more in seven of the last 10 matches at home. Moreover, they go to this game having scored three or more in the last four matches. Sheffield have scored in eight of their last nine away matches, and while we expect that they will take advantage of City’s defensive weaknesses, we don’t see them winning here. Going by City’s returns in attack in the recent matches, we are backing them for a 3-1 win here.
