What Trueform says for Sheff Wed vs Sheff Utd
The last two Steel City derbies have ended in stalemate and we’re going for another draw when Sheffield Wednesday host Sheffield United on Monday night.
Both sides have been in fine form of late, with the Owls unbeaten in seven Championship matches and the Blades going six games without defeat.
Punters can get 23/10 for them to share the spoils at Hillsborough and that is our opening Sheff Wed vs Sheff Utd prediction.
A Look At Sheffield Wednesday’s Betting Odds
Wednesday have sneaked into the top half of the table thanks to back-to-back home wins, beating Swansea 3-1 and Brentford 2-0.
Steven Fletcher netted three of those goals and Adam Reach the other couple to keep new boss Steve Bruce in a bullish mood.
After Tuesday’s triumph over the Bees, the manager beamed: “It was certainly the best performance since I’ve been at the club.
“From the first whistle to the last, I thought we were worthy winners. Some of the stuff we played and the way we worked was terrific.
“I can’t fault them for their effort and endeavour. They’re working extremely hard and I can’t ask for more.
“We could have a really good end to the season. We’ve got a huge game to look forward to next Monday.”
Looking at the Sheff Wed vs Sheff Utd odds, we also like 333/100 for a score draw.
Last Wednesday line-up: Westwood, Palmer, Lees, Hutchinson, Hector, Bannan, Reach, Lazaar, Aarons, Fletcher, Forestieri.
A Look At Sheffield United’s Betting Odds
Wednesday have had quite a few kind fixtures during their good run, but now face a United team full of confidence and pushing for automatic promotion.
The Blades completed a hat-trick of victories when running out worthy 1-0 winners at West Brom last weekend, having drawn at Norwich and Aston Villa in their previous away games.
On-loan Everton midfielder Kieran Dowell’s first goal for the club, netted in the 14th minute, secured the win at The Hawthorns.
Chris Wilder commented: “The positives were the way we stopped good players playing.
“We’re delighted we’ve won a tight game. It was not our best with the ball, but we were at our very best without it.”
After looking shaky on the road at the start of the season, United have now lost only one of their last nine away matches.
We’re finishing off our Sheff Wed vs Sheff Utd betting tips by taking 23/4 for a 1-1 stalemate.
Last United line-up: Henderson, Stevens, Egan, Freeman, Cranie, Fleck, Dowell, Norwood, Johnson, Sharp, McGoldrick.
