Sheffield United VS Arsenal Match Prediction

Arsenal lead the head to head games 50-40 with 27 draws. The Blades have been victorious over the Gunners only three times since 1981,  with all the victories a narrow 1-0 win. The last meeting between the sides saw Arsenal emerge as 2-1 winners in October at the Emirates Stadium. Strikes on 61 and 64 minutes from Bukayo Saka and Nicolas Pepe established a lead before David McGoldrick pulled a goal back in the 84th minute.

Sheffield United vs Arsenal Prediction

Arsenal will still be licking their wounds from conceding late against Sparta Prague on Thursday night and may well be slow out of the blocks at Bramall Lane. Sheffield United on the other hand, have had eight days to prepare after their 2-1 defeat in Leeds last week. However, for all the Gunners’ frailties, the Blades have far more and we expect Mikel Arteta’s side to return to London with a comfortable three points.

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Both sides have had seasons to forget and neither are showing signs of ending this season with a bang or giving cause for encouragement for next year’s campaign. Managerless Sheffield United look like a team who don’t want to return to action until their passionate fans are permitted back in the ground and Arsenal epitomise a side who know the race for the Champions League is over and are now focusing exclusively on the Europa League. Man for man Arsenal should have too much quality but Sheffield United may adopt a physical approach in this game.

Sheffield United have scored the fewest goals (17) in the Premier League this season
