Man United vs Sheffield United prediction
Man United will have their focus on an FA Cup final date with Manchester City next month but they are still battling with Newcastle over sixth spot and a place in next season’s UEFA Europa League.
Despite winning just one of their last seven Premier League games, Man United should have enough to get three points here, against a Sheffield United with just one league win in 2024.
Prediction: Man United 3-1 Sheffield United
