Sheffield United- Hamza Choudhury
This weekend, Bristol City vs Sheffield United predictions and betting tips bring a 3pm Championship clash to Ashton Gate, where two mid-table sides meet with recent history favouring the visitors.
Bristol City slipped to a 1-0 home defeat by Blackburn last time out and have been inconsistent, while Sheffield United lost 3-2 at Portsmouth. The Blades have dominated this fixture, winning five of the last eight meetings.
Anthony Eadson sees a close game and has built his selections around that pattern and the Blades’ leading marksman.
Premium Tips
Two Premium Tips for an Ashton Gate meeting that looks set to be tight.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Patrick Bamford to score anytime | 12/5 (bet365) | Patrick Bamford has rediscovered his scoring touch at Sheffield United, netting four goals in 10 games to lead the Blades’ charge. The striker carries a real threat against a Bristol City side that has conceded 14 goals this term and lost three of five at home. Sheffield United have the better recent record in this fixture, winning five of the last eight, and Bamford’s movement in the box makes him their most likely scorer even after a 3-2 loss at Portsmouth. At 12/5 the experienced frontman is a fair price to find the net at Ashton Gate against a defence that has looked vulnerable. |
| Sam McCallum to be shown a card | 17/4 (Ladbrokes) | Sam McCallum has picked up three bookings in just 730 Championship minutes for Sheffield United this season, one of the highest rates in the squad. The left-back will spend the afternoon dealing with Bristol City’s wide players, and the Robins like to get balls into the box from the flanks. Both sides have lost four of their last six, so neither can afford to give anything away. Ladbrokes offer 17/4 on McCallum picking up a card. |
