Sheffield United vs Nottingham Forest predictions

Sheffield United have already had relegation confirmed having only picked up 16 points all season, from three wins and seven draws.

Forest are presented with a great chance at boosting their survival hopes with a win here however they themselves have lost three of their last four.

And they are still to face Chelsea and Burnley in what will be incredibly tricky, with the final game against the Clarets potentially being a safety decider away from home.

This means they need to avoid this eventuality which they can build towards with a win against the bottom of the table, and at the very least a point wouldn't be a disaster but would still put the pressure sky high.

📝 Sheffield United vs Nottingham Forest betting tips

Putting two teams who've only won ten games between them all season will always give varying results. Sheffield United are on -63 goal difference and that can't be useful even against Forest, who've struggled to find many winners this year. But it should present a game with plenty of goals.

Nottingham Forest to win, over 3.5 goals, over 3.5 cards - 9/2

Sheffield United have picked up the third most cards in the league so far this season with 91 yellow cards.

Forest are eighth with 75, so there could be a few cards in this one, especially with so much on the line for Forest.

These two have the least and fourth least goals in the league but could find a few against each other with both teams defences struggling to keep clean sheets.

Forest should be the one to edge this game with more to fight for and a better defensive record, by some distance.

They often play out games with a few goals both for and against but have more often than not been on the losing side of such scorelines.

Ahmedhodzic and Morgan Gibbs-White to be carded - 15/1

As previously stated, this game is vital for Forest who will travel here willing to throw everything they have to get the win in their fight for safety from the drop.

Luton are only a point behind them with three games remaining and any drop in points will ramp the pressure up, with them also having to bounce back from consecutive losses while Luton and Burnley could both catch up with the Blades.

With that, there should be cards, proper professional fouls. And the two players listed have the joint-ninth most yellow cards of all players in the division.

In fact, Sheffield United have three players with nine yellow cards and it's clear their frustrations in losing can often come out, coupled with the fact they're probably facing a lot more pressure from the constant attacks.

Gibbs-White and Ahmedhodzic have nine a-piece and should be getting in the book once more in this Premier League clash between the already relegated and potential relegation.
