Following two consecutive draws, United have fallen three points behind Leeds and need an immediate win to improve their promotion hopes.
The Blades are now three points behind Leeds and a win would take them above the Whites due to their superior goal difference.
A lot will depend on Nottingham Forest. Martin O’Neill side have lost three straight games and look completely out of form. The team has won just one of their last six games and it doesn’t appear that they will be able to mount any sort of challenge.
With that in mind, the recommendation is to back the home side. Sheffield United may not have picked up a win over Forest sine 2014 however, they come into this game with better form and certainly an additional incentive to win the match.
Sheffield to win by a margin of one goal currently seems like a value bet at 12/5. Another interesting bet is the anytime scorers market. Gary Madine was on the scoresheet last time United were in action and the player is currently priced at 13/8 to score again.
