Sheffield United take on the visitors Fulham in the round 46 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Saturday, May 7th at Bramall Lane (Sheffield).
The team has one plan - not to lose and, if possible, to defeat the leader, alllegedly unmotivated opponent. And wait for the results of matches involving Middlesbrough and Millwall. Perhaps stumble also Luton Town. A two-point handicap from seventh gives a variety of options, and Sheffield United are in great form and have only lost once in the last six rounds. A plus is the good results in his field. Bremell Lane residents have only had one defeat since the end of October. Nevertheless, I think it’s not entirely correct to offer a coefficient slightly higher than two for Hackingbottom’s wards.

Last game in the Championship and return to the Premier League. What is Fulham's motivation? The Cottagers absolutely deservedly are the strongest, scored more than a hundred goals and secured a promotion a few rounds ago. But have they lowered the requirements for themselves? No. In the last round, Luton Town defense felt the might of the Champions. But the “hatters” just have great motivation and are trying to get into the playoffs. Yes, da Silva had some problems in the last away matches. Within a month, the guests lost in two away matches. And lost three times in six rounds. But where is the option that the Portuguese specialist will release a reserve squad on the field and that Sheffield will be able to take advantage of the chance?
A lot will depend on parallel fights. But is Fulham in the last round a clear underdog of the confrontation? In terms of motivation? Maybe. Somehow I do not want to believe that the undisputed leader of the championship will take and give the game. A variant is possible in which it is worth waiting for the same result as in the duel with Luton Town. The champion can put an end to Sheffield's desire to get into the playoffs. I suppose that the hosts will not be able to beat the Cottagers. Despite the minimal victory in the first round.
Prediction for the match: Fulham to win with +0.5 handicap.
