Sheffield United vs Bristol City
A place in the final is the prize as Sheffield United host Bristol City in their Championship playoff semi-final second leg on Monday.
The hosts hold a comfortable 3-0 lead and will be confident of completing the double in front of their fans. The visitors have been out of sorts lately and given their poor record on the road, a home win is expected here.
Sheffield United Form
Sheffield United were full value for the win in the first leg as they were dominant throughout the encounter. Harrison Burrows set the ball rolling from the spot just before the break while second half efforts from Andre Brooks and Callum O’Hare sealed the win.
That result maintained Sheffield United's form from the end of the regular season and they are unbeaten in four of their last five matches. Chris Wilder's team will now return to Bramall Lane where they are unbeaten in seven of their last nine matches.
Sheffield United have a habit of scoring first, grabbing the opening goal in six of their last nine matches at Bramall Lane. They also tend to score more after the break, with four of the six goals scored in their last three matches coming in the second half.
Bristol City Form
Despite playing at home in the first, it was a disappointing outing from Bristol City, who struggled to find their rhythm throughout the contest. They could only muster a single attempt on target, although their task was made difficult by a first half red card to Robert Dickie.
While the sending off made things tough, the result is consistent with their recent outcomes as they are winless in their last four matches. Liam Manning's team have been beaten three times in that run, failing to score in two of the last three fixtures.
Bristol City now face the daunting task of overturning a three-goal deficit at Bramall Lane while often struggling on their travels. They are winless in 13 of their last 15 away matches.
Head to Head
Sheffield United often get the better of Bristol City and are unbeaten in the last eight matches, claiming six wins in that run. The hosts are also unbeaten in three meetings this season, claiming two away wins, including the 3-0 first leg win while the home clash ended in a 1-1 draw.
Verdict
Although Bristol City will point to the red card, that first leg result showed the gulf in quality between both teams. Given the recent record between both teams, it is unlikely to get better on Monday, with Sheffield United expected to claim the win and secure a place in the playoff final.
Sheffield United have scored first in four of the last five matches against Bristol City and should grab the opening goal here. The last six meetings have also produced more second half goals and a repeat is on the cards here.
