Burnley vs Sheffield United Prediction and Betting Tips | April 10, 2023

Sheffield United will look to pick up a fifth straight win when they take on Burnley at Turf Moor in the Championship on Monday (April 10). Vincent Kompany’s side will head into the matchup in celebratory mood, having secured their return to the Premier League at the weekend.

Barely a year after their relegation from the Premier League, Burnley have clinched an immediate return to the top flight, edging out Middlesbrough 2-1 at the Riverside Stadium on Friday (April 7). Kompany’s men now return home, where they have enjoyed an unbeaten run, claiming 14 wins in 20 games.

Burnley have picked up 87 points from 39 games to sit atop the Championship with one game in hand.

Sheffield, meanwhile, continued to strengthen their stake for automatic promotion with a 1-0 win over Wigan Athletic last time out. Paul Heckingbottom’s men are on a run of four wins across competitions since a 1-0 defeat against Luton Town on March 11.

With 76 points from 39 games, Sheffield are second in the league table, with an eight-point cushion over third-placed Luton Town.
