Our prediction for this Championship match:
Cardiff City will try to put an end to their seven-game winless run when they take on Sheffield United in the Championship round 22. The Bluebirds are eager to escape the danger zone, but they will have a mountain to climb against the league leaders. Both Ramsey and Turnbull remain in the recovery room, while duo Tsunoda – Etete will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Blades, on the other hand, recorded a 2-0 win over Plymouth without injured striker Tyrese Campbell, who remains doubtful. Both Sachdev and Arblaster remain in the recovery room. Sheffield United, though, are more of a team than Cardiff City and regardless of which players will be deployed in the starting line-up, away win should be considered this time out. You should know that the Blades are eyeing their fifth consecutive win over the Bluebirds in the English second tier.
Highlighted Team (Sheffield United):
Sheffield United are a professional football club that compete in the Championship. The Blades finished the 2016/2017 League One campaign in top position in the standings, with the team collecting exactly 100 points in the process. Sheffield United last competed in the Premier League in the 2006/2007 season and they were more than unfortunate not to secure the top flight survival.
The Blades finished the season in 18th place in the process and it has to be noted that they were level on points with Wigan Athletic, who managed to avoid the relegation to the English second tier. Sheffield United welcome their rivals at Bramal Lane, the stadium which was opened on April 30, 1855. The current capacity of the venue is 32.702.
The club have numerous rivalries, but the most notable one is the rivalry with their city neighbors Sheffield Wednesday. The two teams face each other in the Steel City derby and it has to be noted that United share rivalry with the likes of Barnsley, Rotherham United, Doncaster Rovers and Leeds United as well.
