Match Facts, H2H & Predictions 14.09.2020

18:00 Sheffield United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

News

• Oliver Burke, Jayden Bogle, Ethan Ampadu and Max Lowe are all new Sheffield’s players, but they might not start right away, until they get acquainted with their new club.
• Even though a doubt, Adama Traore is expected to start here, with Jonny absent and with Matt Doherty being sold to Tottenham this summer.
• Oskar Buur is expected to start at right wing-back.

Match Facts

• Under 2.5 goals scored in 9 of Wolves’s last 10 games (Premier League).
• Under 2.5 goals seen by Sheff Utd in 6 of their last 7 matches against Wolves in all competitions.
• Last 3 matches where Sheff Utd have lost (Premier League).

H2H Stats

Prediction

Sheffield were undefeated in six matches, won five and lost their final home game of 2019/20.

Wolves have lost their final three away matches of the season, but can still be happy with last season’s Premier League’s sixth best away record.

A draw seems the likely outcome here.

News

• After his summer arrival, Adam Lallana is expected to make his Brighton debut here.
• Joel Veltman will most likely spend the season at right-back.
• Another right-back, Tariq Lamptey, turned out to be a key player for Brighton last season and is hoping to stay that way this season too.
• Out of their five new arrivals, only Kai Havertz and Timo Werner will start for Chelsea here.
• Hakim Ziyech is injured with a knee injury and is ruled out and Ben Chilwell has a heel injury and is still not available.
• Thiago Silva will probably not start on Monday, as he just started training with Chelsea.
• Cesar Azpilicueta and Frank Lampard are expected to make the bench here, as they have just recovered from hamstring injuries.
• Willy Caballero or Kepa Arrizabalaga are the options to start in goal against Brighton, even though Chelsea might sign Edouard Mendy before Monday.
• Jorginho will start in central midfield, given that Mateo Kovacic is banned for one match after his red card in last season’s FA Cip final.

H2H Stats

Prediction

Brighton managed to do some good signing this summer, like Adam Lallana and Joel Veltman.

Now they should focus on improving their last season’s 15th-place finish.

Chelsea have spent £200m+ over the summer on new signings and three of them have been ruled out, but Kai Havertz and Timo Werner should start here.

Chelsea are the heavy favourites here.
