Bet365 Stadium will host Stoke City and Sheffield United in an intriguing Championship clash, with the Potters looking to build on a 2-1 victory over Watford. Stoke are likely to stick to their attacking style of play, having scored 1.50 goals per game across their last 10 matches. They have also been particularly strong at home, winning 50% of their last six while conceding just 0.67 goals per game. Eric Bocat picked up a knock against Watford, with Luca Bombino likely to step up.
The Blades, on the other hand, aim to bounce back after a 1-0 EFL Cup defeat to Fleetwood Town, having also lost 1-0 to Wolverhampton in their latest Championship outing. Sheffield United have won 40% of their last 10 matches, while their away record has been solid, with a 50% win rate and just 0.83 goals conceded per game. Defender Sam McCallum is unlikely to feature after picking up a knock against Wolves.
As 60% of the previous H2H clashes produced at least three goals, while Stoke matches average 2.80 goals, we are tempted to bet on Over 2.5 goals. Additionally, Over 1.5 goals (90% H2H) and BTTS (60%) markets seem appealing.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 19 September 2026 at 12:30.
