THE PREDICTION

Nottingham Forest will have been gutted to have missed out on pipping Bournemouth into second-place, but it is been a wonderful season for them under Steve Cooper, who took charge in September following the sacking of Chris Hughton and has this grand old club’s suffering fans dreaming again. They look a fantastic side and Sheffield Utd will need to be at their best over two legs to overcome them. However, the Blades boasts a team full of Premier League experience and a head coach with experience of winning in the play-offs. When taking into account the strength of both teams from top to bottom, this first-leg should prove exceptionally tight. Neither will want to give much away and are likely to set up conservatively at Bramall Lane, so backing under 2.5 goals scored has to be favoured.
