Bottom side Sheffield United host Wolves on Saturday in a virtual must-win game for the Blades. With just one point from their opening ten games, things are looking extremely bleak at Bramall Lane, but victory over in-form Wolves could give the club a long overdue boost. 

The current sports betting odds for this game make Wolves strong favourites, but do our experts agree with that verdict? Read on to discover their exclusive prediction for this vital Premier League encounter. 

Nine defeats and one draw represent the joint worst start to a season in Premier League history. Even worse, many of those defeats have been exceptionally one-sided, including last week’s 5-0 humiliation at Arsenal.

Manager Paul Heckingbottom looks to be on borrowed time, with former boss Chris Wilder hotly tipped to return to the Blades’ dugout. In fairness to Heckingbottom, he is working with a squad devoid of Premier League quality. Relegation looks extremely likely, but even a point against Wolves will go some way to raising spirits

Early in the season, there were a few murmurings at Molineux that maybe Gary O’Neill was not the right man for the job. However, a run of five games undefeated has moved Wolves away from the relegation zone and into a fairly comfortable mid table position.

The next big challenge for O’Neill will be coping with the injured Pedro Neto for the next few weeks. The influential winger has assisted six goals this season and finding somebody to feel that void will go a long way towards determining how successful Wolves are this season.

Head to Head

Wolves have won their last three games against United without conceding a goal. The Blades have only two wins from their last 12 meetings with Wolves, but only trail by one (41-40) in the overall head-to-head.

Wolves are even money favourites to win the game, with the Blades priced at 3/1 to finally record their first win of the season. Most betting apps are currently pricing the draw at around 27/10

The injury to Neto will be a huge factor in this game. It deprives Wolves of their most potent attacking threat and will give the Blades a big boost. We also think that the Blades will make defensive changes and tactical tweaks to address the frailties shown in recent defeats. That all means our betting bonus tip for the game is for a draw.
