Sheffield United vs Aston Villa Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
Aston Villa are yet to lose in the Championship this season but have drawn three of their five games. They have nine points from five games but four points off the two automatic promotion places. If there's a positive result in Friday's game between Leeds and Middlesbrough (the top two in the table), then Villa will be seven points off the top so can't afford a defeat here. Midweek saw them suffer a shock defeat to League One Burton Albion in the Carabao Cup so will need to bounce back from that result. Away league performances this season have seen them win 3-1 at Hull City who are 19th in the table and a 1-1 draw at bottom of the table Ipswich.
Sheffield United are seventh in the table also on nine points with three wins and two defeats so far this season. That's an improvement because United lost their first two games of the season to Swansea City at home and away to Middlesbrough. The last three league games have all been won though starting with coming from behind to get a 2-1 win at QPR and then beating Norwich City 2-1 at home with a 93rd minute winner. It wasn't so close in their last game as they beat Bolton Wanderers 3-0 away United have only won two of their last seven home league games and this looks booked for a draw.

Our Sheffield United vs Aston Villa Prediction
Aston Villa are unbeaten but drawing too many games with three of their first five ending all square. Midweek saw them lose to League One Burton Albion in the Carabao Cup so they need to bounce back from that defeat. Sheffield United have recovered from a poor start to win three in a row but this is tougher opposition for them and the suggestion here is to go for a draw.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
