THE PREDICTION

Sheffield United remain in search of their first win and they’ll have to be at their very best if they are to achieve this against Chelsea on Saturday. Lampard’s men haven’t lost a game since their defeat to Liverpool just two games into the season and will hope to extend this run come the weekend. Sheffield United may have only lost 1-0 to Manchester City last week, but the tight score line was more so down to the poor finishing and attacking play from the visitors rather than a robust defensive performance from Sheffield. With Chelsea averaging 2.3 goals per game this season, the score line may not be so forgiving. A Chelsea win by a two-goal margin could come in.
