THE PREDICTION

Two wins and a draw in their last three Championship matches sees Stoke head into this latest round of fixtures just a point below the top two, although that gap may have grown by the time that they kick off here. Sheffield Utd are on the back of two consecutive league defeats and an expectant home crowd will demand significant improvement. Despite their poor start to the season, Sheffield Utd boast a huge amount of quality among their first team squad, so Stoke will have to play cautiously as an expansive game could well see them punished on the counter attack by the Blades. This may well lead to a tight affair with little in the way of clear-cut opportunities, so consider backing both teams to score in this one.
