Best Bets & Predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Based on recent stats and season trends, here are our top betting recommendations for Sheffield United vs West Bromwich Albion.

Sheffield United to Win<\/strong><\/td>\n8\/13 @ Bet365<\/a>
(61.9%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWe are backing Sheffield United to win because they’ve outscored West Brom by 16 goals this season, create more clear-cut chances (60 vs 40), and have a far stronger home record. West Brom have just 2 away wins in the last 12 H2Hs and come into this 8 places lower in the table.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Both Teams to Score \u2013 Yes<\/strong><\/td>\n5\/6 @ Bet365<\/a>
(54.5%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBTTS Yes is our value pick as both sides rank near-identical for shots (467 vs 469) and have conceded at least 48 goals each. Four of the last six meetings have seen both teams get on the scoresheet, and neither defence inspires confidence.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
