Erik ten Hag is under scrutiny after making hard work of Championship opponents, Coventry, in the FA Cup semi-finals and failing to win a league game in his last four games.

He faces bottom of the league, Sheffield United who are all but relegated and must win this game if he wants to stay on the right side of the United faithful.

Man United vs Sheffield United Prediction

  • Manchester United made extremely hard work of their FA Cup semi-final against Coventry on Sunday, and were inches (literally) away from being dumped out by the Championship side.
  • Erik ten Hag's side have not won a match inside 90 minutes since the beginning of March, against Everton.
  • Sheffield United, meanwhile, set a record for the most goals conceded at home in a Premier League season when they conceded four against Burnley on Saturday to bring the total to 51.
  • The Blades are now without a win in nine matches, and sit nine points from safety.
  • The hosts should really cruise to victory here.

 

Score Prediction: Man United 3-1 Sheffield United (10/1 at bet365)
