MAN UTD VS SHEFFIELD UTD MATCH ANALYSIS
Man Utd stayed top of the Premier League with a point at Liverpool and a 1-2 win at the Craven Cottage against Fulham last Wednesday. The Red Devils remain the only undefeated side in the Premier League away from home this season and are without a defeat since November 1 in the top-flight (W10, D3). They are firm favourites against relegation-bound Blades who come into this match on the back of three wins in four in all competitions, having lost 3-1 to Tottenham at home in the league and won 2-1 in their Round 4 FA Cup tie against League One outfit Plymouth at the Bramall Lane, as well.
Man Utd sit top of the table at this stage of a campaign for the first time since the Sir Alex Ferguson era and will feel this is the right time for another assured display. The jury is still out whether United are genuine title contenders, but a positive result on Sunday has certainly silenced the doubters. Rashford, Pogba, just to name some, are flying at the moment, while Bruno Fernandes, arguably their best player this season, scored a winner on Sunday in the FA Cup Round 4 against Liverpool in their second match in the span of a week.
His superb 78th-minute free-kick gave Manchester United victory in a thrilling FA Cup tie with old rivals at Old Trafford. In a game that had everything last week's drab stalemate between this pair at Anfield lacked, Fernandes came off the bench to have the final word. The victory earns United a home meeting with an in-form West Ham side, but first, they must dispose of Sheffield Utd, who shouldn’t frankly have a chance on this United’s form.
As for Sheffield Utd, after 186 frustrating days, the Blades finally got to experience a winning feeling that had not just deserted them but appeared to have packed up and left the country. Billy Sharp's second-half penalty was enough to secure all three points against Newcastle on January 12 and give the Premier League's bottom side the faintest glimmer of hope that they can stave off a relegation they seemed to be heading towards in record time.
In their most recent Pl match, Chris Wilder’s side Blades side, buoyed by picking up their first league win of the season, still couldn’t prevent another league defeat as the harsh reality that they will need many more positive results and performances to have a chance of retaining their Premier League status kicked in. However, they did gain their third win of the season with a win against Plymouth to set up a 1/16-finals tie against Championship side Bristol.

Solskjaer’s side go into this match 35 points ahead of Sheffield Utd. After a six-game winless run at Old Trafford (D3 L3), they have won 4 of their last 5 home league games (D1), keeping three clean sheets in this run. Strangely, they have beaten just one of the last six teams they have had a 35+ point advantage in the table (D2 L3) in the top-division, but that statistic will most certainly be rewritten after this match.
Sheffield Utd have now beaten more League One teams than Premier League sides this season. They haven’t won any of their last 15 PL away games (D3, L12), haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 14 top-flight away games (D2, L12), and haven’t scored more than once in any of their last 20 league away games. They are losing a grip on their top-flight status, but at least they have proof they can still see off those from the third-tier.
BettingKick’s Man Utd vs Sheffield Utd prediction is: Man Utd win to nil.

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
