Wolverhampton vs Sheffield Utd Prediction 25.02.2024

• Competition: Premier League
• Date: 25.02.2024
• Kickoff: 13:30 UK / 14:30 CET
• Venue: Molineux Stadium (Wolverhampton)

In the previous Premier League round, Wolves delivered a standout performance and caused an upset by defeating Tottenham in London. This result helped them secure the 11th spot in the league standings. Despite slim chances of significantly advancing in the rankings, Wolves continue to show motivation and readiness to challenge England’s top clubs. Their injury situation is getting better, with nearly all players now fit to play. As long as there’s a theoretical possibility of making it to the top 5, the fight is worth it. Now a match is on the horizon where, on paper, Wolves are seen as big favorites.

Sheffield, unparalleled in its poor performance, is one of the two worst-performing teams this season, alongside Barnley. They are teetering on the edge of the Championship, a familiar position for them in recent years as they oscillate between the Premier League and the Championship. Their humiliation was further compounded in the previous round when they lost 5-0 at home to Brighton. Sheffield Utd’s performance is particularly dismal during away games, having lost 9 out of the 12 matches they’ve played so far. They only managed to secure their first away win a few weeks ago against Luton.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Sheffield United pick: OVER 2.5 GOALS

In the prior period, Wolverhampton’s matches proved highly effective, resulting in a high goal count. Although they lost 2-0 to Brentford in their most recent home game, the previous four matches saw at least 3 goals each, totaling 18 goals. On the other hand, Sheffield’s defense is currently underperforming, having let in 19 goals in their last five matches, with potential for worse to come. Despite this, Sheffield occasionally shines offensively, which could be the case in the upcoming game. We anticipate a match with a minimum of 3 goals, where the home team is expected to claim victory.
