Leeds vs Sheffield United Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ian John | in Championship Predictions
There's Friday night Championship action with a Yorkshire taste this week as Leeds United host Sheffield United in a clash of two of the division's top teams. Home team United lie fifth in the table with 16 points from their nine games, while the visiting Blades lie second on 19 points, unbeaten, and only behind Sunderland due to goal difference. What will our match prediction be for this passionate white rose county clash?
Daniel Farke's Leeds come into this game having drawn their last two Championship games. Both of those were on the road and saw Leeds earn a 1-1 draw at Carrow Road against Norwich before a 2-2 draw away to league leaders Sunderland ahead of the international break.
It hasn't been an ideal week for the team, as with a Friday night kick-off, a number of Leeds stars are going to miss key preparation for this game due to international duty.
Despite a two-point deduction that left them bottom at the start of the season, Sheffield United have surged to joint-top of the table under Chris Wilder and remain unbeaten after nine games, winning six and drawing three.
Their defense has been the key, conceding just three goals in nine games, the fewest of any team in the Championship. The Blades have won four of their last five games, drawing the other. That drew came away to Portsmouth at the end of September.
Since then they have beaten Swansea (1-0) and Luton (2-0) both at home and both games before the international break.

Our Leeds vs Sheffield United Prediction
Our prediction for the Leeds United vs. Sheffield United Championship game is: Draw No Bet - Sheffield United to win.
It is fair to say that Leeds have been much better away from home than at home this season. In contrast, their opponents are unbeaten and have been as strong on the road as they have been at home. A draw is a possibility, so we've backed the Draw No Bet option here with a Sheffield United win, knowing that if the game is a draw, we will at least get our stake money back.
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout
More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
