Sheffield United Sunderland betting prediction

Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this clash is that Sunderland will not win. In addition to arriving at the final in high spirits, the Sheffield side have shown greater consistency and, on paper, boast a more balanced and experienced squad. Sheffield United are expected to take control of the match and create the better goalscoring opportunities. It’s also worth noting that Sunderland have shown defensive frailties in the final stretch of the season. Therefore, backing Sheffield United, with draw protection, appears to be a good option for this final.

Preview

Sheff Utd and Sunderland face at Bramall Lane, in a match for this stage of the Championship (Promotion Play‑offs ‑ Final). The head‑to‑head history of the last 3 years favours the home team, since in the last 4 matches they won 3 and lost 1. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 01‑01‑2025, and ended in a (2‑1) win by Sunderland. Sheff Utd registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Sheff Utd

The home team comes to this stage of the Championship (Promotion Play‑offs ‑ Final) after having eliminated Bristol City with a home win by (3‑0) and a away win by (0‑3) in the previous round. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. For the league, Sheff Utd won 20 points out of 30 possible points, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (9 out of 24 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 16 of the last 24 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 14 of their 48 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 24 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 6 of their 17 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Sheffield United come into this big final highly motivated after seeing off Bristol City with two convincing 3-0 victories. Chris Wilder’s side usually lines up in a 4-4-2 formation, adopting a more measured but effective approach, with most attacking moves coming through the central corridor. Up front, Kieffer Moore and Tyrese Campbell take centre stage, while Vini Souza acts as the brains of the operation, dictating the tempo in midfield. Manager Chris Wilder is not expected to have Oliver Arblaster and Harry Souttar at his disposal, as both are currently in the treatment room.

Confirmed Lineup: Michael Cooper, Jack Robinson , Harrison Burrows, Anel Ahmedhodzic , Gustavo Hamer, Sydie Peck, Vinicius de Souza Costa, Hamza Choudhury, Rhian Brewster, Kieffer Moore, Tyrese Campbell.
Coach: P. Heckingbottom.

Analysis Sunderland

The away team comes to this stage of the Championship (Promotion Play‑offs ‑ Final) after a home loss by (1‑1), after extended time, and a away win by (1‑2) against Coventry City. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Sunderland has a record of 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, so they have won 16 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches there are a few frequent results at half‑time: 0‑0 (9 out of 24 matches) and 0‑1 (9 out of 24 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 48 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 18 times and have only turned the score around in 4. In the last 24 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 10 of their 27 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Sunderland come into this match motivated after securing progression past Coventry City, thanks to a 2-1 win in the first leg and a hard-fought draw after extra time in the second encounter. Régis Le Bris’s side typically sets up in a dynamic 4-4-2, with quick transitions and an attacking style that favours pace. Up front, Wilson Isidor and Eliezer Mayenda are expected to cause problems for the opposing defence, while the midfield should consist of Patrick Roberts, Dan Neil, Enzo Le Fée and Jobe Bellingham, the latter enjoying more creative freedom to get into goalscoring areas. Niall Huggins, Jayden Danns and Ahmed Abdullahi are all sidelined through injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Anthony Patterson, Daniel George Ballard, Trai Hume, Luke O'Nien , Dennis Cirkin , Chris Rigg, Dan Neil, Enzo Le Fée, Jobe Bellingham, Romaine Mundle , Eliezer Mayenda.
Coach: A. Neil.
