Sheffield United are on the march in their search for an automatic promotion slot. They will be up against Preston North End, who are the hosts in this clash. Preston go into the game on 12 points in 12th place while Sheffield leads on 20 points. It hasn’t been great for the hosts in their recent matches; they come into this game with just one win in seven games. In their last seven games they have failed to score in four and at no point have they managed more than a goal in their nine Championship matches. Preston played to a 1-1 draw with Burnley in their last game, that result making it two winless outings for Preston. In five straight home matches in the league, they are winless and failed to score in four, only managing one goal.
Sheffield United are a point above second placed Norwich City after their third straight win, beating Swansea 1-0. That result also presented the home team with their third straight clean sheet, and they have four in five. They’ve conceded just one goal in the last five matches – the 1-1 draw with Luton Town. In three of their last five matches, Sheffield have scored two or more goals. They go into this game unbeaten in the last seven matches and away from home in the Championship they have two straight wins and four matches unbeaten. In their last two away league games, they’ve managed clean sheets. In the last five meetings with Preston, Sheffield United have gone unbeaten, though each of the last three ended in 2-2 draws.

Our Preston North End vs Sheffield United Prediction
Sheffield United are in top form and they take to this game a five-match unbeaten run. They have in their recent matches been great defensively as well as in attack. Playing away from home has come with good results and here they face a team with a winless run at home. Preston have struggled in attack too when playing at home and we will back the visitors to win with a clean sheet.
