Bristol City vs Sheffield United Score Prediction
An early goal from academy graduate Tommy Conway proved enough to earn a point for Bristol City against an in-form Swansea side in their last EFL Championship encounter.
The Robins showed some promise in the earliest stage of the season, particularly going forward, but have now won just two of their last ten league games ahead of this tricky midweek clash.
Sheffield United seem to have turned a page following a dismal run of results, cruising to a 2-0 away win against West Brom on Saturday thanks to two early goals.
Paul Heckingbottom's men were winless in six EFL Championship outings prior to that result, but are now heading back towards the automatic promotion places.
Score Prediction: Bristol City 1-2 Sheffield United
Harry Smith's Tip: Away team Over 1.5 goals
