Sheffield United will be looking to push home advantage as they attempt to get their season back on track against a fellow out-of-form side, Queens Park Rangers, at Bramall Lane this weekend.
Our 3 Predictions For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers:
- 1st Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Match Result – Draw – 5/2
- 2nd Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Over 2.5 Goals – Yes – 17/20
- 3rd Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Rumarn Burrell Anytime Scorer – 14/5
1st Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Match Result – Draw – 5/2
These 2 teams are so horribly out of form, it’s hard to pick a winner. Sheffield United briefly rallied after Chris Wilder took over, but they’ve since struggled with 3 defeats on the spin.
Granted, one of those was against the all-conquering Coventry City side, but they were meek against Preston North End, and they don’t appear to have the strength to see matches out. 4 points adrift at the bottom, they look in trouble.
Why not back them for defeat, as they have the worst home record in the division? Because at present, Queens Park Rangers don’t look great either. They’ve lost 3 on the spin, a humiliating 4-1 defeat against Ipswich and, given the circumstances, an even worse defeat against managerless Southampton.
If either won this, it would simply be the lesser of 2 evils prevailing. It’s got score draw written all over it.
2nd Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Over 2.5 Goals – Yes – 17/20
There will be a winner, though, namely the neutral. Sheffield United are scoring goals – they’ve hit 8 in their last 5 matches. Creativity isn’t the problem for Wilder’s Blades; defending is. They’ve let 10 in during the same period, and have shipped 6 in their last 2 fixtures.
They leak goals, and they score goals. Both teams to score (BTTS) has come in for the last 4 of their fixtures, and 4 of the last 6 involving QPR. Neither side feels like they’re capable of a clean sheet right now. QPR have kept 1 in 6, Sheffield United 1 in 7.
It’s going to have goals, you can almost count on it. The smart money probably sits on a 1-1 draw, the ambitious bettor will back 2-2.
3rd Prediction For Sheffield United vs Queens Park Rangers: Rumarn Burrell Anytime Scorer – 14/5
Queens Park Rangers’ last 4 goals have all come from the boot of the former Burton Albion man, and he is finding his form.
He’s been one of the bright sparks as they’ve tumbled down the table, and if anyone is likely to notch for QPR, he is.
Sheffield United have spread the goals around, which is encouraging from a team point of view. From a betting point of view, the Hoops’ reliance on Burrell is something not to be missed.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head:
Both teams are in horrible form. Sheffield United are the worst in the division at home, with a single win at Bramall Lane all season. That came as they beat Watford 1-0, the only game they kept a clean sheet in when in front of their home supporters.
They come into the game on a run of 3 defeats, 4 points adrift of safety and only kept off the bottom of the table by the blue half of Sheffield.
As for QPR, they’re faring no better recently. They’re 16th, 9 clear of the bottom 3, but on a run of just 1 win in 5. That’s included 3 home defeats, and a goals haul of just 4, all from the same man.
Both teams will be eager to kickstart their campaign, but QPR are in a better position. They’re the 6th-best side in the Championship away from home, with wins against Swansea City, Bristol City and Wrexham, as well as a point at Hillsborough on their last visit to Sheffield.

Last Results - Sheffield Utd
Last Results - QPR
Head to head, the Blades have won 21, QPR 19, and they’ve shared 20 draws throughout history. Last season, the corresponding fixture ended in a 2-2 draw, QPR getting a late leveller through Lyndon Dykes despite losing Jack Colback to a red card.
The reverse fixture at Loftus Road also resulted in a win for the Blades, 2-1, when a Michael Frey penalty was a mere consolation for the hosts after Ben Brereton and Tyrese Campbell scored in either half.
QPR last won at Bramall Lane back in 2022, Chris Willock getting the only goal of a tight encounter. To ensure an even spread of wins, draws, and defeats in the three fixtures, Sheffield United won the same fixture the season prior, Oliver Norwood getting the only goal of the game.
