I am betting the under 2.5 goals in this match, despite the fact that Leeds United 2 games back in the premier league have featured 14 goals in both matches (3-4 v Liverpool and 4-3 v Fulham) I do believe this match points towards lower scoring match than the market currently suggests. If you go back a few short months ago to see the previous season where Sheffield United matches featured just 2.05 goals per game a staggering 27 of their 38 matches had 2 or fewer goals in them, while Leeds who were promoted from the Championship saw their games average 2.46 goals in their matches the 4th lowest in the Championship, with 30 of their 46 games going under 2.5 goals. The handicap line is a draw no bet which suggests the market is telling us that the teams are quite evenly matched and very little between the teams and these times of games tend to lend themselves to lower scoring games. It is also a derby match which should also help our bet and overall I think under 2.5 goals is a clear value bet. I am also betting Leeds for this match, their odds have come up just a little but it is enough to make Leeds a bet today so adding them as well.
