Sheffield Utd vs Burnley Match Preview And Prediction
Sheffield Utd vs Burnley: Six more games saw Sheffield United give up at least two goals. During their last six Premier League games, Burnley has only one loss. In the rematch at Turf Moor five months prior, Clarets triumphed 5-0.
Burnley’s late equalizer loss in their home match against Brighton last weekend was a very unfortunate one. At Turf Moor, goalkeeper Arijanet Muric committed a horrendous mistake that resulted in an own goal, preventing Josh Brownhill from scoring the game’s first goal.
Clarets were six points outside the safe zone after the draw. With only five games left before the season ends, time is running out. Given the situation, Vincent Kompany’s team cannot afford to lose against Sheffield United in their Matchday 34 match. Bramall Lane will host the game on Saturday afternoon.
Despite having a game in hand, Sheffield United is four points below Burnley at the bottom of the league table. However, considering the squad has only won three games since the start of the season, a 10-point deficit between them and the safe zone is essentially unbreakable.
