Wolverhampton Wanderers and Sheffield United will compete there. Do the guests have a chance? The expert department of the website has prepared a prediction for the match on February 25, 2024.
Wolverhampton achieved much more than was expected
“The Wolves” have long lost their status as “the thunderstorm for the favourites”, but they took 7th place and made their way to the Europa League play-offs after returning from the Championship. Speaking about the previous season, only an appropriate bet on Lopetegui saved the team from returning to the second division of the country – the specialist had been persuaded to move to England and lead the crisis club. Nevertheless, the summer sale of footballers made Julen leave... That decision ultimately brought positive things: the young and energetic successor, O’Neil, rebuilt the game, and “the Wolves” had broken the three dozen points mark by February, while, at the same time, continuing to fight for the cup. As for the previous round, Tottenham was also added to their scalps – that opponent was beaten with a 2-1 score on the away arena.
Sheffield United periodically punishes someone for underestimating
“The Blades” returned to the Premier League under the leadership of Heckingbottom. Moreover, Paul, who became a manager during the last but one season, first took the team only to the top 6, but lost the play-offs. Still, then he and his wards improved the performance and confidently entered the Premier League directly together with Burnley. Nowadays, these teams are the neighbours at the very bottom of the Premier League. And the return of the local legend, Wilder, did not have much effect. Although from time to time, it was possible to “bite” the favourites. Aston Villa and West Ham were robbed of points, keeping the matches in a draw, and Luton was completely beaten on the away field. As for the previous round, the team lost to Brighton without a chance – there happened a 0-5 score when it was in the minority.
Previous head-to-head matches
