Hull City sit 18th in the Championship table with 9 points from eight games. The Tigers have won two of their last five matches and are coming off a spirited 2-2 draw with Preston, where ex-Blade Oliver McBurnie scored twice to rescue a point.
They have a poor recent record in this fixture — just one win in the last nine meetings against Sheffield United — but will be optimistic this time around against a struggling opponent. McBurnie’s form (7 goals this season) makes him their biggest threat up front.
Betting on Sheffield United
- 1XBet Spread: +0.25
- 1XBet Moneyline: 3.35
- 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
It’s been a chaotic start for the Blades, who are bottom of the table with only one win in eight games. Chris Wilder’s return to the dugout briefly lifted spirits after a 1-0 victory over Oxford United, but that was quickly followed by a 2-1 home loss to Southampton in which Wilder was sent off and will miss this clash from the touchline.
Sheffield United have lost nine of their last 10 competitive matches and scored just one goal in their four away league games. Their attack has struggled, and confidence appears low.
MatchPlug Prediction for Hull City vs Sheffield United
Hull City’s solid home form and the momentum from their comeback draw against Preston make them favorites against a Sheffield side in disarray. While Hull haven’t been completely consistent, they’ve avoided defeat in five of their last eight matches and face a Blades team that’s still searching for stability.
Final Prediction: Hull City to win.
