Sheffield United won 46% of their home games this season and lost just one of their last 15 home games. In addition, there is a 76% possibility to see under 3.5 goals in this game. 

Sheffield United 0 Goals Handicap 

As we mentioned before, Sheffield United are in great form at Bramall Lane and covered the 0 goal handicap on 18 occasions this season. Moreover, United won one and drew two of the last three h2hs. 

Anytime Correct Score 1-0 

In 61%of their home games, Sheffield United took the initiative and scored first that is 14/23 fixtures. On the other hand, 10/23 times the opponents scored in Nottingham’s games. Additionally, United scored first in the last three meetings with Forest. 

Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Sheffield United vs Nottingham Forest 

Sheffield United are bidding to make it ninth time lucky after failing in each of their eight previous attempts to earn promotion via the play-offs! A 4-0 win over Championship winners Fulham will have boosted their confidence and after securing their top-six place with a four-match unbeaten league run (W3, D1), they’ll reckon they’re as well prepared as they can be to break their play-off hoodoo.

They could start by adding to five clean sheets across their last six home Championship matches. Although they did concede to Nottingham Forest in March (D 1-1) to continue a run of closely fought encounters between the sides. To point out,  just one of the last six H2H meetings decided by more than a one-goal margin. 

 Matchups at Bramall Lane have been relatively profitable for the ‘Blades’ in recent times though, where they have won three of the last five H2Hs (D2) and not lost since April 2004 (W3, D5).

With their top-six place assured, Forest didn’t finish as strongly as they wanted to (D1, L1). So they’ve got to pick themselves up as they aim to go one better than their previous Championship play-off appearance when they fell at this stage in 2010/11. Yet qualifying via a fourth-place finish has been a remarkable turnaround after spending the early part of the season in the relegation zone.

That stalemate here in March will offer encouragement for a side that was able to rest players before drawing 1-1 with Hull City so they’ll feel fresher than their opponents. With goals potentially at a premium, scoring first could be key, and Forest have only lost once after netting the opener on the road in the league this term (W8, D2).

Sheffield United vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

We see a slight advantage for the home side but a draw is definitely not off the table. Therefore, we prefer to pick a double chance of a home win or draw outcome combined with under 3.5 goals

A draw has a 25% possibility in this match according to the stats. In addition, three of the last five meetings between these two clubs ended in draws. As a result, for our quick profit choice, we will pick a draw that has odds of 3.10 at Vbet.
