Sheffield United have not gained a single point yet from the first four rounds of the current Championship season. Ipswich obtained three from their opening four games, earning them a place as number 20 in the table.

The Blades will not be short on motivation for their clash with the match favourites Ipswich. Although the odds are against them, a narrow win on Friday will see them move ahead of their upcoming opponents in the table.

Ipswich only average a modest 1.2 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 12 goals. They also conceded 11 for an average of 1.1 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Sheffield United managed a bearable 12 goals from their past ten games, creating an average of 1.2 goals per game. They conceded 12 goals in total, and while claiming three clean sheets, they conceded 1.2 goals an average per game.

The last time these two teams faced off against each other, Sheffield United came away as 2-0 winners. No doubt they are planning a similar outcome on Friday.

Ipswich vs Sheffield United Prediction

Ipswich Form

Ipswich failed to win any of their last three matches, though they managed to draw against Southampton in a 1-1 match, before coming up short against Preston in a 1-0 defeat. Most recently, they settled for a 2-2 draw against Derby. Ipswich only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Championship matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew four and lost zero, as they scored nine and conceded six goals.

Sheffield United Form

Sheffield United were unable to pick up a single good result in their last three matches, as they were first beaten 1-0 by Swansea. Next up, Millwall won 0-1, before losing 1-0 against Middlesbrough. Sheffield United won twice, while also recording zero draws, and four defeats in their last six away matches in the Championship. The scoreline from these matches says six goals conceded and seven scored.

Sheffield United and Ipswich seem to find it tough getting their defensively lines in order, as they both concede too many goals. We hope the trend continues on Friday, as we aim for both teams to score.
