Ladbrokes Festival Countdown - Day 12

Sheffield United to win or draw against West Brom

Tonight in the Championship, Sheffield United face West Brom away from home, with Ladbrokes tipping the Blades to walk away with the minimum of one point, potentially even all three.

It's by no means a longshot, with odds of 11/20 (assumed probability of 64%), and the form of both sides certainly reflects that.

Sheffield United sit in 17th place in the Championship table right now, and while West Brom go into Friday night's game in a higher position, that doesn't tell the full story.

Sheffield United actually started the season with two-point deduction for financial wrongdoing, and they'd be sitting ahead of West Brom in 16th without their penalty.

Also, Sheffield United started the season awfully, but their form has actually improved a lot as of late. In fact, their loss to Coventry on November 4 was their last defeat in any competition.

Wilder's side can extend their unbeaten run to seven games tonight if they manage to get a result out of a West Brom side who, on the other hand, aren't performing well at the moment.

Over the same six game period, where Sheffield United haven't lost a single fixture, West Brom have tasted defeat three times.

In fact, West Brom have only won two games across the last six, with their last two matches ending in a loss. The form heading into this fixture most certainly lies with Sheffield United.

Anything can happen in football, particularly when it comes to the ever-chaotic Championship. However, tipping Sheffield United to either draw or beat West Ham tonight, with odds of 11/20, represents decent value.
