Manchester United vs Sheffield United Best Bet
20:00GMT
Manchester
Old Trafford
On April 24, 2024, we will have a very interesting game between Manchester United and Sheffield United in Manchester. Manchester United are currently in 7th spot, with the exact same number of points as Newcastle. They are 10 points behind Tottenham and 2 points above West Ham. It is unrealistic to expect them to get that 5th spot that would lead them into the Europa League next season, but they will surely give their best. However, they are still fighting for the Europa League/Conference League qualification spot/spot. Sheffield is at rock bottom. They are in last place in the Premier League with just 16 points. Sheffield is 10 points below Nottingham with just 15 points in the game. It seems like there is no hope for them staying in the Premier League this season. However, they will give their best, and try until the very end.

Current Form
Manchester United are winless in their last 6 games in the regular season. The last time they won in the regular time was at the beginning of March at home against Everton. Last weekend, Manchester United played in the FA Cup semifinal against Coventry. It was one of the most bizarre games of the season. Coventry is a championship team who have won against some of the Premier League teams this season already. United were 3-0 up in that game. After that, Coventry made one of the biggest comebacks this season. Manchester United won throughout the penalty shootout to reach their 22nd FA Cup final. They have to regroup now if they want to win against Sheffield United and keep their European push alive. Manchester United should have confidence coming into this meeting considering they are unbeaten in 15 matches against Sheffield United.
Sheffield United travel to Manchester with almost no hope for this season. Chris Wilder, their manager, admitted that the Premier League has been too strong for the Blades. The last game they played was last week against Burnley, where they lost 1-4. Burnley are also at the bottom of the league, so it was embarrassing to see Sheffield get completely dominated against one of the worst teams in the league. The last time they won was at the beginning of February against Luton. It is worth mentioning that they have conceded 88 goals this season already. If they concede two more, they would set a new record for conceding the most goals in a 38-game season.
Best Bet to Make
Even though Manchester United are not in the best form, we still believe that they will dominate tonight against the worst team in the league. This season, Manchester United have won against Sheffield United once already. They will play at home tonight, and we believe that they will prove themselves in front of their own fans.
Manchester United winning by at least 2 goals is a value bet.
