Swansea vs Sheffield Utd Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 13th September 2022

Anything but a win for Sheffield Utd on Tuesday will be a disappointing outcome, when faced with relegation-threatened Swansea. The Championship leaders should be able to strut their stuff at Swansea.com Stadium. The last time the pair played each other, Sheffield United came out the other side as 4-0 winners and surely won't mind a repeat of that result.

Sitting top of the table, Sheffield Utd claimed 17 points after eight rounds, while Swansea have amassed nine points. This ranks the latter as number 19 in the Championship before the next round.

Swansea are looking for a payback after suffering a disappointing defeat in their latest encounter with Sheffield Utd but odds don't favour them to pull it off.

Swansea have a hard time getting on the scoreboard these days, as they managed a poorly eight goals in their previous ten matches. That is an average of 0.8 goals per game, in which they conceded 17 goals, or 1.7 goals per game. Furthermore, they fought their way to two clean sheets in this run.

Sheffield Utd scored an average of 2.1 goals in ten matches for a total of 21 goals. They also conceded 11 goals or an average of 1.1 per game, as they managed four clean sheets.

Swansea vs Sheffield Utd Prediction

Swansea have seen it all in their last three matches, which gave them four points. First, they went down 2-1 against Middlesbrough, before picking up a 1-1 draw against Stoke. Their latest match brought a 1-0 win in their encounter with Queens P.R.. In their last six Championship matches at home, Swansea have one win, while they've drawn two and lost three.

Swansea entered the season dreaming of medals, but find themselves far off track following a lousy run of form.

Sheffield Utd went unbeaten through their last three matches, which began with a 1-1 draw against Luton. A 4-0 win against Reading followed, before they beat Hull by 0-2. In their last six away matches in the Championship, Sheffield Utd won twice, while also recording three draws. They endured one defeat in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying nine goals conceded and 12 scored.

They opened the season hopeful of medals, but in current form Sheffield Utd even deserves a mention when talking about the title.

Form looks slightly more in favour of Sheffield Utd than odds suggests. We believe the bookmakers have placed a little too much faith in Swansea and we like the prices on offer for the away win.
