West Bromwich hosts Sheffield United in round 3 of the English Championship. The match will be played on Wednesday, August 18th at The Hawthorns (West Bromwich)
After returning to the Premier League, West Bromwich immediately returned to the Championship. There were few chances to stay, as the three losers lagged far behind other competitors. If we look at the current season, the Throstles look interesting so far. In the first round, they tied against the strong Bournemouth (2-2), and the second game brought a home victory over Luton at home with a score of 3-2. Callum Robinson scored goals in both matches, and West Bromwich is now sharing the lead with a large group of clubs.

Sheffield United was able to show one powerful season in the Premier League. The team looked very good and even laid claims to European cups. The Blades didn’t manage to keep at this level, the opponents began to take them more seriously, and this led to a failure in the previous season. Two rounds of the Championship have passed, and Sheffield United did not even score (a 0-1 home defeat to Birmingham and a goalless away draw against Swansea). There was also a League Cup match, where the Blades beat Carlisle United from the fourth most powerful division (1-0).
Judging by the start, West Bromwich is doing better, although it makes no sense to draw conclusions from only two matches. According to the bookmakers, the hosts have a slightly higher chance of success, but we expect anyone’s game. Based on the outcomes of the first games, it can be understood that the teams profess different styles, West Bromwich tends to attack, and Sheffield United prefers to play cautiously in its penalty area. In the upcoming match, we are expecting spectacular football, so a bet on Over 2.5 goals scored looks promising.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
