Competition: Premier League
Market: Wolves win
Odds: 21/20 @ Pribet
Looking to extend on their recent Premier League flurry on Saturday afternoon, Wolves will travel to Bramall Lane when they meet Sheffield United.
Starting with the hosts, while Sheffield United might have breezed their way to a Premier League return last season, the Blades find themselves in the midst of a public top-flight nightmare. Sat rock-bottom of the table and with a huge amount of pressure on Paul Heckingbottom’s shoulders, they have collected just a single point from any of their first 10 Premier League appearances. Breaking a string of unwanted records by the week and already tipped as a leading relegation contender, Sheffield United have only continued to show a string of issues on either side of October’s international break. Last seen getting blown away at the Emirates as they slumped to a routine 5-0 drumming at the hands of title candidates Arsenal, the Blades have lost each of their previous six top-flight appearances – a run that stems back to a 2-2 stalemate against Everton on September 2nd. With their nightmare rut underlined by an infamous 8-0 drumming at home against Newcastle, Heckingbottom’s men have gained a major reputation for their glaring defensive issues. In fact, Saturday’s hosts have shipped 29 goals in their first 10 Premier League showdowns.
As for the visitors, while many might have felt that Wolves could find themselves at the heart of another Premier League relegation scrap when opening up the 2023/24 campaign, they have certainly shocked many up and down the country. Last seen snatching a 2-2 draw against Champions League outfit Newcastle, Gary O’Neil is certainly doing an eye-catching job in the Midlands. Marking their return from October’s international break with a 2-1 win away at Bournemouth, Wolves should be smelling the chance to make another top-flight statement here. Unbeaten in each of their previous five Premier League appearances – a run that stems back to September 16th – Saturday’s guests now sit just a single point adrift of breaking into the top-half. Signing off September with a famous display as they secured a 2-1 victory at home against defending champions Manchester City, O’Neil’s men should be relishing a trip to Bramall Lane this weekend. Landing a 3-0 romp when they last met Sheffield United in FA Cup action back in January 2022, we are expecting a similar away win here.
