Sheffield United recently suffered their first defeat in a long time and will be looking to redeem themselves in front of their fans. West Bromwich have not been playing their best away from home, so we doubt they will be able to take points from one of the main contenders for the top spot. The hosts will be extremely motivated for this match, so we will bet on them.
