Sheffield United vs. Chelsea Spread Pick: Chelsea -1½ (+113)
There are only a few matches left in the season for Sheffield United, who are struggling at the bottom of the league. With only a few matches left, it is difficult for the Blades to make a positive change. In the last match, they suffered a defeat against Liverpool. They haven’t won a match in the last five matches.
We expect them to enter this clash all guns blazing and leave many gaps at the gap. Chelsea is deadly from the middle and up and they should be able to score at least three goals on their own.
