Sheffield United vs Burnley Prediction & Picks - Premier League

Prediction published on 4/16/24, 1:30 AM  by Simon Day | Modified on 4/16/24 at 6:18 AM in Premier League Picks

The bottom two sides in the Premier League table face each other in a must win clash at Bramall Lane on Saturday. The Blades are 10 points from safety with just six games remaining, even if they manage to win all of their final fixtures, it may still not be enough to escape the bottom three. Burnley have a slightly better chance of survival, but are six points behind fourth bottom Notts Forest with only five games remaining. The Clarets have been in reasonable form of late, losing just one of their last five games. However, they have drawn three of those fixtures, and need to start converting those draws into wins if they are to have any chance of retaining their top flight place. 

When the two sides met at Turfmoor earlier in the campaign, Burnley recorded a comfortable 5-0 victory, comfortable their biggest win of the campaign. Overall, the sides have met on 130 occasions, with the Blades holding a 52-46 head-to-head advantage.
