There’s intriguing Championship action to enjoy on Saturday in a key match affecting the top of the table. Third-placed Sheffield United host Norwich City in a game between two teams struggling a little for consistency. Will our prediction back the Blades to cut down the Canaries?
Chris Wilder’s Sheffield United are third in the Championship table with 52 points from 26 games. The Blades are a point behind Leeds and below Burnley on goal difference. Opponents Norwich lie 11th in the table with 36 points from 26 games. The Canaries are five points off Middlesbrough, who lie in the final playoff spot in sixth.
After losing two of their opening 22 Championship games, the United have lost three of their last five in all competitions, winning just one. A 2-1 loss at Sunderland in the league was followed by a 2-1 win away to Watford, but last weekend in the FA Cup, the Blades went down 1-0 at home to Cardiff City.
Norwich are unbeaten in four in the Championship, racking up wins at home to Millwall (2-1), away to Luton (1-0) and at home to Coventry (2-1). They also drew 1-1 with QPR in late December. They also suffered an FA Cup defeat last weekend, losing 4-0 at home to Premier League Brighton.

Our Sheffield United vs Norwich Prediction
Our prediction for the Sheffield United vs. Norwich City Championship match is: Under 2.5 Goals.
The earlier match between these two teams this season finished 1-1, and historically, recent fixtures have been tight. The data also shows relatively few goals going in at either end at Bramall Lane this season as the Blades have such a good defensive record with just five conceded in a dozen home league games. The data suggests goals will be at a premium here; hence, backing the Under 2.5 Goals market is a good option.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
