Manchester City vs Sheffield United: Premier League preview and betting tips

The second half of the current Premier League season starts on Saturday. There is no doubt about the favourite of the match Manchester City vs Sheffield United, Citizens need to win. The match will kick off on Saturday 30 December at 16:00.

When to watch Manchester City vs Sheffield United?

Saturday’s encounter will offer a clash of teams with completely different problems. While the team of experienced coach Pep Guardiola is involved in the fight for the championship title, as in previous years, Sheffield United are facing a rescue battle. The match will kick off on Saturday 30 December.

Will Manchester City end the calendar year with a win?

Manchester City managed to dominate the Club World Cup without any major problems. They followed this up with a victory at Goodison Park, where they beat a very unpleasant Everton, although they were awarded the opening goal of the match.

Currently, Pep Guardiola’s squad is in fourth place with 37 points. They are five points behind Liverpool, while the Reds have one more game to play. So the chances of winning another title are definitely not small.

Sheffield United remain at the top of the table

Sheffield United have just nine points to their credit after halfway through the season. So, at the moment, things are looking very bleak for salvation. Coach Chris Wilder’s team has the worst attack and defence. Its position in the table is therefore no surprise.

Betting tip – Manchester City to score at least 3 goals

Manchester City should get the mandatory three points at the end of the calendar year, plus they will have home advantage against the last team in the table. The recent Club World Cup winner can be expected to score at least three goals. Given the possible absence of Erling Haaland, it is also a good guess that Julian Alvarez will be able to score. The Argentine footballer should also be a possible penalty taker.
