Prediction: 2-2
West Ham
Buoyed by a thrilling FA Cup win (4-0) over Gillingham, Sheffield United will look to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on West Ham United on Matchday 21. The Blades were beaten by both Luton Town and Manchester City in the previous two league matches, but they are surely capable of matching David Moyes’ troops in front of home fans. Both Anis Ben Slimane and Yasser Larouci are on international duty, while Jayden Bogle has overcome his injury.
The Hammers, on the other hand, aim to move closer to the Champions League berth, but given their ups and downs on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Nayef Aguerd and Mohammed Kudus are representing Morocco and Ghana respectively at the Africa Cup of Nations, while both Lucas Paqueta and Michail Antonio miss out with injuries.
