Sheffield United

At present, Sheffield United stands as the least formidable team in the English championship. In 22 fixtures, the Blades have amassed a mere ten points, trailing the salvation in 17th position by a margin of nine points. Midweek, the United side contested an away match against Crystal Palace, leading twice in the scoreline; nevertheless, they ultimately succumbed 2-3. Perhaps, the sole bright spot in Chris Wilder's team's recent performances was the triumph over the modest Gillingham from the second tier in the FA Cup, concluding with a resounding 4-0 victory. Yet, even this triumph has somewhat faded into oblivion, especially considering the home debacle against Brighton in the subsequent round (2-5).

Aston Villa

Meanwhile, Aston Villa has emerged as a genuine revelation in the current English Premier League campaign. Throughout the season, the Villans have vanquished such top-tier adversaries as Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal, and Manchester City. It is unsurprising that Unai Emery's squad is currently contending for a spot in the Champions League. Furthermore, let us not overlook Aston Villa's confident displays in European competitions, where they topped their group in the Conference League. Against the backdrop of all these successes, the recent defeat to a beleaguered Newcastle on home turf earlier this week, ending 1-3, is somewhat perplexing. This outcome has relegated the Villans to the fifth position, albeit with just a three-point gap from the second-placed Manchester City. It is worth noting that last weekend, Aston Villa faced Chelsea in the FA Cup, concluding the match in a 0-0 draw, setting the stage for a replay.

Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history

• Sheffield United is one of the two teams this season to have secured points at Villa Park.
• In the home fixture of the first round, the Villans equalized only in the 90+7 minute, resulting in a 1-1 draw.
• The Blades have triumphed over Aston Villa in their last three home encounters.

Sheffield United vs Aston Villa prediction

Unai Emery's team urgently needs a victory, and the upcoming match against the underdog presents an excellent opportunity to accrue three points. Our wager for this encounter is a "Victory for Aston Villa" with odds set at 1.65.
