A huge fixture at the bottom of the Premier League standings takes place this weekend, as Sheffield United and Bournemouth look for a vital three points. The pressure will be on the hosts, as they chase a second victory of the season.
There will be crucial action at the bottom of the Premier League standings this weekend, as Sheffield United and Bournemouth lock horns. The Blades should come into this fixture in good confidence, as they have gone two without defeat in the top-flight. A second win in three matches this weekend could lift them out of the bottom three.
Bournemouth were the biggest winners after Everton’s point deduction, as they have risen to 16th in the standings. Their recent form would also give them good confidence ahead of this match on the road, as the Cherries have landed two wins in their previous three. Their most recent success came before the international break, as they recorded a 2-0 home win against Newcastle.
However, their away record would be a concern before this weekend. They are without a victory on their travels in five attempts, losing on four occasions. Their defensive record is also the worst in the Premier League at this stage, as they have already allowed 17 goals.
Sheffield United have picked up four points from the last six available, meaning that they have now won more points over this period than they did over their previous 12 in the Premier League. However, they haven’t avoided defeat in three straight matches in the top flight since going four without loss in July 2020.
The Blades have an excellent home record in this fixture, as they have lost just once in their last nine league home matches against the Cherries. Their only defeat was back in August 1987. Bournemouth’s overall record against the Blades is also poor, as they have won just once in the last eleven.
This could be a pivotal match for Sheffield United in the Premier League this weekend, as all the trends point to a home success. Therefore, we will be siding with the Blades picking up maximum points against the Cherries on Saturday.
