Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 1-1
Sheffield United
Sheffield United continue to impress in the 2019/2020 Premier League season. The Blades did well to beat Norwich City and Aston Villa in the previous two league fixtures, with the team climbing to the 5th position in the standings. Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder, though, must warn his men against complacency as the season is quite long. The newcomers face a difficult task in Saturday’s football game against Brighton, but we predict that they are going to grab something from the match.
Seeing that the Seagulls have been producing fine performances in the first half of the season as well, a close encounter is on the cards at the American Express Community Stadium, and we are tempted to put our money on draw. It has to be noted that the two teams meet for the first time ever in the Premier League.
