Brighton vs Sheffield Utd Prediction & Betting tips
The duel between Brighton & Hove Albion and Sheffield United is scheduled for Saturday afternoon at 16:00 in the American Express Community Stadium. The visiting team is neatly seventh in the competition, while the home team cannot be dissatisfied with the current thirteenth place.
Brighton & Hove Albion:
Brighton & Hove Albion is therefore in thirteenth place in the Premier League. The Seagulls took twenty points in seventeen games and will not be dissatisfied with the thirteenth place. Last Monday, the Graham Potter team last played in the Premier League. The M23 derby against Crystal Palace was scheduled for Brighton on Monday evening and Brighton managed to score a point at Selhurst Park: 1-1. Neal Maupay made the opening goal in South London less than ten minutes after the break, but Brighton goalkeeper Matthew Ryan had to take the 1-1 just fifteen minutes before the end.
At Brighton they are already unbeaten for three games in a row. For Crystal Palace-out, The Seagulls also scored points in the duels with Arsenal (1-2 win) and Wolverhampton (2-2 tie). Against Crystal Palace, Potter decided to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation and it is expected that Brighton will also play against Sheffield United in the same formation. Potter has to compete against Sheffield United alone without the injured José Izquierdo and Solly March. Dale Stephens returns to a suspension on Saturday afternoon.
Sheffield United:
Sheffield United is busy with the last matches – three of them preferably – from 2019. A successful year for Sheffield United, who therefore made the transition from the Championship to the Premier League and is also a fighter in the Premier League. Nobody expected Sheffield United to have already built up a lead over the relegation zone and let alone that lead to no less than ten points. Chris Wilder is still performing superbly with Sheffield United in the Premier League.
Sheffield United gained six points from the last two games. After the 1-2 victory over PhD student Norwich City, Aston Villa, also promoted, was defeated 2-0 by The Blades last weekend. John Fleck scored both goals against Aston Villa and the 28-year-old Scot has four in this season. On the other hand, he also took his fifth yellow card and is therefore suspended for the encounter with Brighton & Hove Albion.
