Sheffield United spent the better part of the season battling for the Championship title but faded off towards the end. Finishing in third place, they will wrap up their regular season campaign with a home match against eighth-placed Blackburn. We have a prediction for the match below.

Sheffield United are targeting a return to the Premier League, and this is not a match that can affect that. It will therefore not be a surprise if Chris Wilder rests his top men, with the playoffs looming.

After a largely stable season, Sheffield could only manage two wins in their last six matches. They lost the rest. Ahead of this game, though, the Blades posted a 2-0 victory away at Stoke City.

Blackburn Rovers are still in the top-six equation, but to get there, they will need favors from other teams.

In recent matches the Rovers have had a much more stable run, though it might be a bit late for a surge into the playoff positions. They have bagged 65 points going into this match, which is two points outside the top-six.

Coming from behind, Blackburn beat Watford 2-1 in their last outing. That was their fourth straight win and marked five unbeaten outings. In the last 10 meetings with Sheffield, they managed just three wins.

Our Sheffield United vs Blackburn Prediction

Blackburn Rovers are holding on to the slimmest of hopes for a top six place. They are definitely tense, but they have no choice here; this is a game they must win. The hosts will not give in without a fight, as they too try to wrap up the regular season strongly.

Sheffield United will not be the under-pressure side but will want to rest their top players. Blackburn will cling on to any gains they can have from this game to win here. Our prediction for Sheffield United v Blackburn Rovers is that Blackburn Rovers wins the match.
