Sheffield United vs Tottenham Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Kennedy Kechula | in FA Cup Predictions
Sheffield United will host Tottenham Hotspur at Bramall Lane on Wednesday in the fifth Round of the FA Cup. It is the first time in over 60 years that the two are meeting in the tournament but it hasn’t been that long since their last competitive meeting which was in 2021 in the Premier League. Sheffield United prevailed in a replay with Wrexham to advance to this round while Spurs got the better of Preston North End. United are having a good season in the Championship where they sit second and are on course to return to the top flight just two seasons after being relegated. Paul Heckingbottom’s men have won 19 matches out of the 33 they have played and have lost seven. They have stuttered though in recent weeks and defeated Watford 1-0 last time out to end a two-game losing run. The Blades needed a replay to overcome fifth-division side Wrexham after the two teams drew 3-3 in the first match. United had to come back twice to force the replay, scoring a 90th-minute leveller. Since then, only two of United’s last six matches have failed to produce at least over 2.5 goals with three in that stretch seeing over 3.5 goals. The replay with Wrexham was more straightforward as they sealed a 3-1 win to extend a winning run at home that ended at six matches just two weeks ago. United have been strong at home this season and Tottenham should be wary.
Tottenham come into this match having won their last two matches by similar 2-0 score lines. They defeated West Ham United and Chelsea to take control of fourth spot in the Premier League. Antonio Conte’s men have struggled with consistency and have won more than two matches in a row just twice this season. Despite their struggles, Spurs have improved greatly in defence and have kept five clean sheets in their last seven matches across all competitions. They have failed to score just once in that stretch and only one of their matches has seen both teams score. Their recent record against Sheffield suggests that they are good for the win.
