Manchester City vs Sheffield United: Preview and Predictions
Manchester City
Manchester City will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to Chelsea last weekend when they host Sheffield United at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday. The Citizens have started the season with two wins and two defeats and will be keen to put some points on the board before the international break. Pep Guardiola's side will be without Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte for the game, but they still have plenty of quality in their squad. Rodri, Bernardo Silva, and Raheem Sterling will all be looking to impress as City look to get their Premier League campaign back on track.
Sheffield United
Sheffield United have made a solid start to the season, taking four points from their first four games. The Blades have been resolute in defense and have shown a willingness to attack, which has led to them being the surprise package of the season so far. Chris Wilder's side will be hoping to cause an upset against Manchester City on Sunday. The Blades will be without David McGoldrick and John Lundstram for the game, but they still have plenty of experience in their squad. Billy Sharp, Oliver Norwood, and John Fleck will all be looking to make a difference as Sheffield United look to continue their impressive start to the season.
Prediction
This is a tough game to call, but I think Manchester City will have too much quality for Sheffield United. The Citizens have a lot of experience in big games and they will be looking to get back to winning ways after their defeat to Chelsea. I predict a 2-1 win for City.
