Wrexham will be back at the Racecourse Ground to host Sheffield United in a Boxing Day encounter in the Championship. Contrasting outcomes in their last outings left Wrexham 15th in the standings, three places ahead of Sheffield United. below is our match prediction.
Injuries and international duty mean Wrexham cannot count on at least nine players for this game. The Red Dragons have gone winless in their last five matches, and the conditions ahead of the game may make this tougher.
Their 2-1 loss to Swansea last time out left them sitting seven points below the playoff places. The hosts haven't lost a lot, but 10 draws in their opening 22 matches have really pulled them back. No team has drawn as many.
Sheffield United will be out to add to Wrexham’s woes. The past few weeks have been great for the Blades, who have managed to rise out of the relegation zone.
That has been orchestrated by eight wins in their opening 22 matches, five of which came in the last seven outings. In their latest assignment, Sheffield United ticked all the right boxes in a 3-0 win at home to Birmingham.
That brought to an end a two-game winless period. While this is the first league meeting between these two since 1983, they’ve met three times in cup competitions in the last two years, with Sheffield winning twice.

Our Wrexham vs Sheffield United Prediction
Sheffield United are unbeaten in this matchup, winning three of these teams’ last four meetings. However, they have never managed a clean sheet in this fixture, conceding 2+ in three of the four encounters.
Now heading into this one, they will still be the favorites, but in Wrexham’s scoring run, we don’t expect them to go down without a fight. They have failed to score in just one of their last six outings. The hosts have lost twice in their last three games, and our prediction of Wrexham v Sheffield United is for Sheffield United to win and BTTS.
