Sheffield United vs Middlesbrough Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Sridhar in Championship Predictions
Sheffield United will look to improve their chances of automatic promotion from the EFL Championship when they host a struggling Middlesbrough in a matchday 32 meeting on Wednesday. This match at Bramall Lane between the 2nd-placed Blades and the 7th-placed Boro comes with our prediction of a home win.
United’s 64 points put them only two behind leaders Leeds ahead of this round, but just three above Burnley. Middlesbrough’s 44 points came from 30 matches and are just a point outside the top six, with a game in hand.
A 2-1 home win over Portsmouth last weekend was United’s fifth win in their last six league games, losing just once. This sequence helped them to stay in touch with league leaders, although the Blades still have ground to cover.
United won 11 of their last 14 home league games, but two defeats and one draw from their last five home matchdays is a cause of concern. Middlesbrough have already defeated United once this season, winning the reverse fixture 1-0.
That said, four defeats from their last five competitive matches have pulled the rug out from under their feet. The visitors have dropped out of the playoff race, although a game in hand could be handy if they halt a run of consecutive defeats on the road.

Our Sheffield United vs Middlesbrough Prediction
Despite their two-point penalty, Sheffield United are running Leeds close in the race to win this year’s EFL Championship. The top three teams are stacked close, though, which means a loss here could see them drop down to third. Middlesbrough won the reverse fixture 1-0 last October, but their recent form is poor. Four defeats in their last five competitive matches have pulled them outside the playoff places, although only marginally. This looks like a must-win for the home team, and our Sheffield United v Middlesbrough prediction is Sheffield United wins the match.
