Sheffield United vs Bristol City Prediction: The hosts are expected to win

Sheffield United will welcome Bristol City to Bramall Lane on Tuesday. Bristol are winless in nine of their last 10 games on the road. Can they bounce back to winning ways? Below, I have the team news, possible starting 11, some interesting facts, expert betting tips, and odds.

Sheffield United

Sheffield United secured a 1-0 win over Preston North End in their last game, with the only goal of the game scored by Tyrese Campbell in the 56th minute. The 25-year-old attacker has scored two goals in his last two games after going eight games without a win. The Blades have won six of their last seven games, with the only loss coming against Leeds United. They have won three of their last four games at home. They sit second on the table with 76 points in 36 games, scoring 51 goals and conceding 27. They are on the same points with league leaders Leeds United after the Whites suffered a 1-0 loss against Portsmouth in their last game. Elsewhere, Vinicius Souza, Gustavo Hamer, Ollie Arblaster, Alfie Gilchrist, Harry Clarke, Jamie Shackleton, Tom Davies, and Rhys Norrington-Davies are ruled out of this game due to injuries.

Bristol City

Bristol City got a 1-1 draw in their last game against Hull City. Joao Pedro Galvao opened the scoring in the 13th minute before Anis Mehmeti equalised from the penalty spot in the 54th minute. Bristol are now unbeaten in their last five games and have lost once in their last nine games. However, they are winless in nine of their last 10 games on the road. The Robins sit 7th on the table with 53 points in 36 games, scoring 46 goals and conceding 39. They are just two points off the playoff spot, and a win in this game will help their qualification aspiration. Elsewhere, Robert Atkinson, Ross McCrorie, Luke McNally, Fally Mayulu, and Ayman Benarous are ruled out of this game due to injuries.
