Sheffield Utd – Swansea : Preview & Prediction
The Championship is coming back this weekend. For the first day, supporters of England’s second division will be able to watch the match between Sheffield United and Swansea City. This meeting looks very tight on paper. Indeed, the locals were very solid last season. By finishing ninth, just six points away from the play-off area, Sheffield’s players are hoping to do even better this season. Especially since they were able to put themselves in full confidence during the summer preparation. In seven games, Sheffield United lost no match (5 wins, 2 draws). They were able to hold Inter Milan (1-1) in check. The locals could therefore start favorites against Swansea City. Relegated last season to the Premier League, the Welsh club should have a hard time concentrating again. Having lost several major players, the Swans remain on a series of four games without a win.
During the summer preparation, Sheffield United had five wins and two draws.
Swansea City has not won since four games.
Downgraded to the Premier League, the Swans lost several major players.
The Welsh club has won only one of its last sixteen games.
The last time Sheffield United had hosted Swansea City (in 2010), the locals won (1-0).
For their entry in the running, the two teams will seek to register a first success. However, Sheffield United leaves with a head start. Very strong since the start of the summer preparation, the Sheffield players have not experienced the slightest defeat. Faced with the Swans who are much less confident, Sheffield United could pocket his first success.
