Sheffield United hosts Watford in round 19 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Thursday, December 26th at Bramall Lane (Sheffield)
Most of Sheffield’s fans would be very happy to pick up the newspaper on Christmas morning and see their team in the top four. It is unreal, but Sheffield is the closest team to the Big Four, although Wilder said that his team needed to work a lot to get into the top. One way or another, the victory over Brighton, combined with other successful results, allowed Sheffield to outrank the Spurs and the Devils. Sheffield really found its game, having only one defeat in 11 matches, but the best part is that they won three games in a row. I think that the ability to stay in the top five will help Sheffield to set up for this match properly.

Pearson's appointment as head coach is gradually bearing fruit. In the last round, Watford beat the Devils (2-0), but I had more questions for Man United than I would like to note Watford's game. Watford has disgusting away statistics. It suffered six defeats, scoring five goals and conceding 19. Moreover, Watford's tape shows that the team has several significant problems with the squad, which will be clarified before the start of the match. Of course, Pearson will hope that his team will be able to defeat another United after the last successful game, but in my opinion, the Hornets will have no chance due to the closed type of Sheffield’s game.
Watford's confident victory over Manchester gives the team confidence before a difficult week. However, the Hornets will play against the team with a strong balance between the lines of attack and defense. I agree that the defeat in the home game with the Magpies encouraged Sheffield somewhat, and the Blades beat Villa without any particular difficulties, thereby confirming that the defeat to Newcastle did not shake them. I think that the match will turn out to be closed, but the home Sheffield should constantly dominate. I will bet on the victory of the hosts because they are better, both physically and morally.
Prediction for the match: Sheffield United to win
