Competition: Championship
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 5/6 @ 888sport
Already clinching their Premier League return, Sheffield United will look to keep up their party atmosphere when they travel to Huddersfield on Thursday night.
Starting with the hosts, while Huddersfield might still find themselves at the heart of a Championship relegation scrap, the Terriers are enjoying what has quickly become a stellar wave of momentum. Last seen snatching what could turn out to be a season-defining 2-1 victory away at Cardiff, it is hard to understate just how much of a stellar job Neil Warnock has done since returning to the John Smith’s Stadium. Marking their return from March’s international break with a remarkable performance as they claimed a 4-2 romp at home against leading play-off contenders Middlesbrough, Huddersfield have now lost just one of their previous eight Championship appearances. With that run stemming all the way back to March 11th, Warnock’s side could be smelling the chance to spring an upset on Thursday night. It should also be noted, the midweek hosts have seen five of their last six second-tier matchups finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, already booking an automatic Premier League return with plenty of time to spare this season, Sheffield United have continued to gain a string of plaudits from across the Championship. Last seen putting in another rampant display as they cruised their way to a 4-1 victory at home against play-off dreamers Preston, Paul Heckingbottom’s side have won eight of their previous 10 appearances across all competitions. While the Blades might have been disappointed to have seen Premier League giants Manchester City end their stunning FA Cup adventure on April 22nd, Thursday’s guests find the mood around Bramall Lane at a red-hot high. Simply looking to sign off their Championship romp with another statement here, Sheffield United will still know that they face a tough test against a Huddersfield squad who are still fighting to maintain their second-tier status. In what could be an enjoyable affair from Yorkshire in midweek, we are backing both teams to find the net.
Bet: Both teams to score at Huddersfield vs Sheffield United 5/6 for Thursday’s Championship battle @ 888sport
