This Championship Round 40 fixture sees Swansea travel to face Sheffield Utd on Friday at Bramall Lane. The Swans are 14th in the standings with 52 points, two points above the Blades at 17th place. Who is likely to ace this contest? Let's get into our prediction for the match.
Sheffield Utd's slender hopes of securing a playoff spot are fast slipping away as they have dropped points in their last four matches, including a shock 2–1 defeat at home to Wrexham in their most recent outing. The Blades now sit 13 points outside the playoff places after the defeat at Wrexham, and will look to strengthen their chances with a win on Friday.
Notably, at the heart of their underwhelming performances has been their porous defense. They have conceded in each of their last four matches, and the situation is even worse at Bramall Lane, where they are on a nine-game run without a clean sheet, all of which ended with both teams finding the net.
Swansea are also gradually losing momentum in the race for a top-six finish. They come into this fixture on back-to-back defeats, including a heavy 3–0 loss at home to Coventry City last time out – a result that left them 12 points behind sixth-placed Southampton. They haven't kept a clean sheet in their last four away matches, conceding an average of two goals per match across those road trips.
