Sheffield United - Coventry City: Form Analysis
Sheffield United had a swift takeoff after the 2022 World Cup break, winning the two matches to make it three wins in a row and are just three points behind league leaders Burnley. They will go joint top with Burnley if they bag three points here, and coming from a run of four wins in five games, they will view this as a possibility. In the last eight matches, they have one loss and they’ve won six of their last seven games. Sheffield’s scoring run is also impressive; they have failed to score in just two of their last 10 matches but they have just two clean sheets in the last five matches. Three of their last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals. At home, Sheffield have conceded two or more goals in three of their last five matches but they’ve scored first in each of the last three games. Coventry City, just like Sheffield United are coming into this game on the back of a win; they trounced West Bromwich Albion 1-0 in their last game. That was a good improvement especially in defence, having let go of a 3-0 lead to draw 3-3 at home to Swansea City earlier. They have three wins in the last five matches and have suffered just one loss in their last seven matches. This will be an interesting encounter for them, as they have the chance to rise into the top six, when they face an opponent they haven’t lost to in the last three meetings. Coventry have only failed to score once in the last 10 matches but they have six clean sheets in the 10 games. Six of their last seven matches have produced under 2.5 goals and they’ve won to nil in three of their last five. Coventry City have only conceded more than a goal in one of their last five matches while they have four clean sheets in their last five away matches.

Sheffield United & Coventry City Squad Analysis
Sheffield United will be without John Fleck once again, as he recovers from injury but the Blades can call on Sander Berger. Ollie McBurnie has been on fire lately, with three goals in the last four games and getting him a starting berth will be a no-brainer for the manager. While at it, McBurnie and Illiman Ndiaye should be the focal points in the Sheffield United attack, both having scored nine times in the league this season. Ndiaye is back from the World Cup, where he helped Senegal reach the Round of 16 and he should be well motivated for this game. As for Coventry, defender Fankaty Dabo’s return should be great news but not better than the fact Viktor Gyokeres is fit and ready for this. Gyokeres has scored five times in the last five matches and his 11 league goals place him at the top of the scorers’ charts.

Our Sheffield United vs Coventry City Prediction
Coventry City haven’t lost in three straight matches against Sheffield United and just like Sheffield, they have one loss in the last five games. They come into this game with six clean sheets in 10 games and apart from the 3-3 draw with Swansea, they’ve been pretty solid defensively. Sheffield aren’t weak defensively either, and here we don’t expect a very open game. With that in mind, our prediction for the Sheffield United v Coventry City game will be under 2.5 goals.
