Sheffield United VS Cardiff City prediction England Championship

Sheffield Utd are 9th in the table with 61 points or only 1 behind top 6 and playoff zone, so the team is still in the battle for promotion. In the last two games the team made two draws against Nottingham 0-0 and Brentford 1-1. In 4 consecutive games are without a lose, but still this form is not good enough as 3 of the games ended with draws. Their only win in this period came against outsider and last in the table Burton with 2-0. Most of their difficulties are in the trips, while at home are good in the past months with 3 wins and draw from last 4 league fixtures.

 

Cardiff are second in the table with 79 points or 7 over Fulham, also with 1 game in a hand. Second place is important as giving a direct promotion to Premier League, so with only 7 games left until end of the season Cardiff are in great position to keep this place. Also their moment form is just great after a victory over Burton with 3-1 at home in the last round, while before that beat also Brentford with 3-1 away at home. So now the team is with 8 consecutive wins in Championship, also 12 games in a row without a lose (2 draws and 10 wins in this period).

 

After all, Sheffield Utd are not in best form, but still very close to the playoff zone and will fight for top 6 position, while Cardiff are second in the table and in great form after 8 consecutive league wins, so here an interesting derby is expected and with lots of goals as both sides will push for a win.
