Sheffield United v Watford Betting Tips
Sheffield United v Watford Match Preview
The 2-2 draw with the Rs at Bramall Lane might be tinged with regret at ceding a two-goal second half lead, but Chris Wilder’s side have certainly looked better than many feared before the campaign.
Plus, this year’s Coventry recruit Callum O’Hare has rekindle an excellent relationship with last year’s, Gustavo Hamer, and as well as having a bromance off the pitch, they complement one another’s game on it.
O’Hare is the tricky, agile and elusive ball-carrier who loves to wriggle his way into space between the lines, while Hamer is the final action man who can deliver a delightful crossfield pass, ball over the top, or pin-point strike at goal.
Between them, they make the Blades dangerous, following a late recruitment drive of six recruits after the penultimate pre-season friendly.
On paper, United’s squad is stronger, and while Watford have started with maximum points, they’ve beaten Millwall, Stoke and Derby who aren’t exactly the strongest opponents.
As such, the hosts are rightly odds-on and should put an end to the Hornets’ 100% winning start to the campaign.
