Sunderland vs Sheffield United Predictions

  • Sunderland have only won three of their last ten league matches.
  • Sheffield United are unbeaten in six Championship away games.
  • Two of the Blades’ last four away games have ended 2-2

Black Cats decline continues

Sunderland’s promotion hopes were dealt a blow as they were beaten by Stoke in their final game of 2024, and they may be forced to settle for a third winless game on the spin when they host second-placed Sheffield United on New Year’s Day.

The Black Cats trail their visitors by four points heading into gameweek 25 and they have seen their form dip over the past couple of months, winning just three of their last ten second-tier outings.

They remain unbeaten at the Stadium of Light, but they have dropped eight points in their last seven at home and face a Sheffield United outfit that haven’t been giving up much of late.

High-scoring draw expected in the north east

The Blades did lose at home to third-placed Burnley on Boxing Day, but that is their only defeat in their last 13 assignments and they haven’t lost on the road since mid-October.

Chris Wilder’s side have won four and drawn two of their six trips since then and have scored exactly twice in five of them. This includes two 2-2 draws, and Sunderland have played out the same scoreline in two of their last seven at home, making a Sheffield United double chance and a 2-2 correct score prediction the recommended bets.
