The home team come bouncing into today’s Sheffield United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers betting tips after their wonderful 4-2 win at city rivals Wednesday in the Sheffield derby at the weekend. That result means it’s five wins from six for an on the up United side. One clean sheet in six will be a stat that will concern Chris Wilder, however.

The away side, powered by a raft of Portuguese players, are pushing hard for top spot in the Championship. Nuno Espirito Santo’s men have lost just once in thirteen fixtures this season and they are looking confident ahead of our Sheffield United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers predictions. They have conceded an average of one goal per game in the Championship though, which is a little much for a team with their aspirations.

The teams last went head-to-head in two League One meetings during the 2013/14 campaign. Wolves won both matches 2-0, though, with such a high turnover of players since those games for both clubs, the results are of little relevance. Incidentally, Wolves have lost just twice in eight visits to Bramall Lane.

Sheffield United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction and Betting Advice

We are tipping the away team to be victorious in our Sheffield United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers bets today. The visitors have the best away record in the Championship this season having won 4 of their 5 matches on the road to date. Portuguese midfielder Diego Jota has been in sensational form for Wolves since joining in the summer and he could well add to his five goals on Wednesday. United's home results have been good in the opening months, but they have lost two of their last four there, so belief could be waning a little. Despite their impressive league position, Sheff U have already lost four times in eleven fixtures across two tournaments. They are far from invincible. William Hill have the best odds around in terms of value and variety, that’s why we chose them.

The second of our free football tips and predictions concerns the overs/unders goal markets. There have been over 2.5 goals in three of Wolves last four games, while there has been over the same number in four of the last six of the host’s contests. Wolverhampton are the second top scorers in the Championship this season, though they have conceded nine in nine. That tells us that we should always expect goals when they are involved. Sheffield United have only conceded one goal fewer than their opponents and only six teams in the division have scored more goals than Chris Wilder’s players. Given the information available, it makes sense to expect more goals on Wednesday. Ladbrokes have the goals market cornered this week and you won’t find better value anywhere.
