Sheffield United vs Wrexham Predictions

• Over 2.5 goals landed in both meetings last season
• There have been at least three goals scored in three of Sheffield United’s last five games
• Wrexham are winless in four away from home

Blades and Wrexham should provide entertainment

Sheffield United and Wrexham entered the season with expectations of challenging for promotion but both have some work to do to close the gap on the top eight.

The Blades are four points adrift of the promotion places and Wrexham are two points further back. United look the more likely winners here based on form but the visitors won both league meetings last season so the best option here could be focusing on the goals markets and over 2.5 goals stands out.

Three were 11 goals scored across the two league meetings between these sides last season and both have been involved in some high-scoring games of late., Over 2.5 goals has been a winning bet in three of the hosts’ last five and in four of Wrexham’s last six, and both sides’ games are averaging over 2.5 goals per game in the league.

The Blades were held to a 1-1 draw by Derby in their last home assignment but were incredibly unfortunate not to pick up a win. They are facing a Wrexham side who have just one win in seven attempts on the road across all competitions and they should be able to claim maximum points on Friday.

The Red Dragons have struggled for goals on their travels but the Blades have shipped seven goals across five home games so the visitors can contribute to the total and a 2-1 home win has a chance.

Patrick Bamford is United’s top scorer this season with five goals in the league and all of those strikes have come at Bramall Lane, he is the standout contender for an anytime effort against Wrexham.
