West Bromwich Albion vs Sheffield United: Recommended bets
Matheus Pereira to score first. Pereira was one of the Baggies’ standout performers in the Championship last season.
However, having netted one goal this term, he will be hoping for better and to add to his tally against Sheffield United.
The Brazilian is 17/2 to score the first goal on Saturday.

West Bromwich Albion vs Sheffield United FC: Match preview
1-0 defeats against both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United will leave West Brom disappointed that they failed to secure a result in either fixture.
Harry Kane’s 88th-minute winner at the Hawthorns and Bruno Fernandes penalty at Old Trafford means Albion have now lost their last three games.
Slaven Bilic’s side are currently 19th in the table with three points from their first nine matches.
The Baggies have conceded the most goals in the league this season with 18.

Chris Wilder under pressure
Sheffield United have secured just one point from their first nine games leaving them rock bottom of the Premier League.
Their only point came against fellow strugglers Fulham in a 1-1 draw at Bramall Lane.
Following last season’s incredible run, their form since Project Restart has been very poor with the goal severely drying up.
The Blades are the league’s joint-lowest scorers netting just four times.
