Sheffield United vs Everton Prediction and Betting Preview, 20 Jul 2020

Here's our Sheffield Utd vs Everton Prediction analysis: For a newly-promoted side, Sheffield United have worked wonders in the Premier League this season. They have impressed largely with their scintillating displays, also grabbing positive results along the way to keep within European qualification reckoning. Having finished behind Norwich City in the Championship the previous season, the Blades gained automatic qualification to the Premier League. Wasting no time, Sheffield have quickly gotten themselves acquainted with the daily hassles of top-flight football.

Sitting eighth on the standings, Chris Wilder’s men have garnered a staggering 54 points from 36 games, sporting inferior goalscoring numbers in that time. With 38 goals to their name, they are one of the lowest scoring sides in the league.

However, they have compensated for their bluntness in attack with their resilient defense. The Blades have conceded just 35 goals this term, ranking them as the second-best defensive side within the cluster – behind only league champions Liverpool.

With only one point separating them from seventh-placed Tottenham, Sheffield will need victories over their remaining two games to stand any chances of qualifying for the Europa League. Beginning with Everton on Monday evening, the Blades will be seeking nothing but maximum points.

One of the surprise packages of the Premier League this term, Sheffield United are well in the running for a Europa League place finish. What better way to crown this fairytale of a season for the Blades than a ticket to a European competition? Surely, no other route!

Seeking to breach the highly-coveted top-seven mix a few days ago, Sheffield United were gunning for an unlikely win over top-four contenders Leicester City, even in unfamiliar territory. Having to deal with the pace of Jamie Vardy up front, the Blades were found wanting.

The league’s top goalscorer Vardy pulling the strings, the visiting defenders were left chasing shadows for large portions of the game. Condemned to a 2-0 defeat in the East Midlands, they could easily have been hammered by a larger margin but for some Leicester City profligacy.

Meanwhile, sitting 11^th on the log, five points adrift the top-half of the standings, Everton needed maximum points against relegation contenders Aston Villa to move ever closer to leapfrogging tenth-placed Burnley. 
Having gone behind late in the second half via a well-taken Konsa goal, the Toffees threw men forward in search of an equalizer. Luckily for the Toffees, Theo Walcott salvaged a point inside 87 minutes, sending Carlo Ancelotti into frenzy down the touchline.

For this fixture, Sheffield United are slight favorites for the win. With the Premier League entering its final stretches, they are running out of time to finally breach the European places. Surely, they will be desperate for a win here to bolster their chances at continental qualification.

Chris Wilder’s charges are unbeaten in four of their previous five games, and are on a four-game winning run on home turf. Meanwhile, Everton have lost four of their last five league games, conceding three or more goals in these matches.
