The Reds to claim a comfortable home win
Liverpool have won their past six matches against Sheffield United in all competitions.
Liverpool are doing everything within their powers to stay on top of the log. Last time out, they had to come from a goal down to beat stubborn Brighton at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp’s side have won eight of their past nine games at home in all competitions. The only blip was the 1-1 draw against Manchester City.
The Reds are clearly the overwhelming favourites in this clash. Blades’s current form has put them in a difficult position to even walk away with anything in this contest.
In the head-to-head, Liverpool have the upper hand. They have won the past six meetings and nothing should stop them from winning again on Thursday night.
The stats and form all align with a Liverpool win in this Liverpool vs Sheffield United predictions piece. Only a miracle can prevent the Reds from thumping the Sheffield side.
Bet 1: Liverpool to win & under 3.5 @ 2.74 with Bet9ja
Luiz Diaz to score anytime
Luiz Diaz has scored three goals in his last six Premier League games for Liverpool.
Diaz is one of Liverpool’s dangerous players and has been playing a part in their title charge this particular season. He has been able to share the goalscoring burden with Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and the always-injured Diogo Jota.
The Colombian has stepped up in recent weeks for Jurgen Klopp’s side and that is why they are still top of the log. At the weekend, he quickly responded to a failed clearance to level the scoring in the eventual 2-1 win over Brighton at Anfield.
In total, the winger has seven goals and four assists to his name in the Premier League this season. With his side set to play the Premier League’s bottom side, Diaz will be keen to add to that tally and getting to do so should not be a problem.
The game seems likely to produce this outcome, so it is a good tip in this Liverpool vs Sheffield United predictions piece.
Bet 2: Luiz Diaz to score anytime @ 2.02 with BetKing
A first half of goals at Anfield
Liverpool’s three of the past five Premier League games have produced over 1.5 in the first half.
Liverpool have scored 67 goals in the Premier League this season, while Sheffield United have conceded 77 goals. At Anfield, the Reds have managed to score 59% (40 goals) at home in the competition, signalling their strength going forward in home fixtures.
Sheffield United have a daunting task on their hands as they have conceded 11 goals in their past three Premier League games. Therefore, it is not a good time to go to Anfield, considering how they have played in recent weeks and throughout the season.
Given the way Liverpool have approached the recent games, our betting expert is tilting towards this goal direction again in this Liverpool vs Sheffield United predictions piece.
Bet 3: First half over 1.5 @ 1.66 with Bet9ja
Another shut-out for Liverpool against the Blades
Liverpool have won five of their past six games against Sheffield United to nil.
Liverpool have been dominant in the Premier League this season and are currently on course to win the Premier League again for the first time in four seasons. In games like this, the Reds are the overwhelming favourites to take the win and we have rightly backed them in our previous tips.
Liverpool have not kept a clean sheet at Anfield in the Premier League since December. It is about time they did that against the Blades, who have only scored once against them in six matches.
Two of the past three meetings at Anfield have also ended in wins for Liverpool without them conceding. Therefore, our expert is backing the Reds to keep a shut-out against the Blades as they continue their march to the title in this Liverpool vs Sheffield United predictions piece.
Bet 4: Liverpool clean sheet – YES @ 1.75 BetKing
