Sheffield United vs Derby County Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

 by Ian John in Championship Predictions

Sheffield United and Derby County renew their rivalry in the Championship this weekend, with the Blades looking to make it six games unbeaten and the Rams seeking their first away points of the campaign. Does our prediction back the Blades to be sharper, or will the Rams flee the home side to land a first away match victory?

The home side have enjoyed a solid start to their season in the Championship. An opening-day win at Preston (2-0) was followed by two draws against QPR (2-2) and Norwich (1-1) and then two good wins over Watford (1-0) and Hull City (2-0 ) last weekend. 

With eleven points taken from those five games, Sheffield United currently occupy the sixth spot in the Championship table but with nine points. That's because they started the season with a -2 point penalty after defaulting on payments to other clubs in the 2022/23 season.

Derby County's start to the season has been exemplary at home but poor on the road. The Rams have won all three home games without conceding, but they were beaten 4-2 by Blackburn Rovers and then 2-1 by Watford on the road. They also lost a Carabao Cup second-round tie to Barrow on penalties.

Paul Warne's team has won its last two Championship games, both at home, including last weekend's 1-0 win over bottom club Cardiff City. This result puts the Rams in eighth place in the Championship table.
