Middlesbrough host Sheffield United at Riverside Stadium, Middlesbrough on Saturday, Mar 20 at 4:00 PM in the Championship.
Middlesbrough come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Sheffield United travel in mixed form (2W 0D 3L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Middlesbrough here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Sheffield United, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Sheffield United won 1–2. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Middlesbrough a slight edge, but Sheffield United are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
