Prediction: 2-0
Sheffield Wednesday
There will be fireworks when Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday, the two bitter local rivals, face each other at Bramall Lane on Matchday 17. Sheffield United have been impressive at home ground this season and, as a result, they sit in second position in the standings ahead of the Steel City derby. The Blades recorded three wins in previous four home games in the English tier, but you should bear in mind that they suffered a 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest at the weekend. The Owls, on the other hand, have been totally out of form of late, with the team suffering a loss in each of their previous four league fixtures. Sheffield Wednesday have been totally out of form in recent weeks and seeing that they struggle at the back, we predict that Sheffield United are going to pick up all three points from Friday’s football match.
