What to expect

We expect about 1.6 goals from Sheffield United and 1.1 from Watford, so Sheffield United come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Sheffield United or Draw. This covers Sheffield United or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 78 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.19, which works out at about 84 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓Sheffield United have won three of their last five.
✓Watford have won two of their last five.
✓Four of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in one of the last five meetings.

Southampton crestSouthamptonvDerbyDerby crest★★★★★
Southampton are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.2-1.0), and we make them about 69% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
