Sheffield United continue their fight for a return to the English top flight on Tuesday night when they play host to Bristol City.
Twenty-three points separate the two sides with the hosts sitting in second place, while Bristol City are separated from the top six by only three points.
Sheffield United got the season off to a flying start, putting together an 11 match unbeaten run in the league and have maintained that form throughout. The Blades only managed a narrow 1-0 win over Preston at this ground on Saturday afternoon, but that will not matter as it was enough to keep them in second place.
Bristol City ended their two-game winning streak with a 1:1 draw against Hull City last weekend. The Robins came from a goal down to claim a point, but after playing over 70% of the game with a man down, manager Liam Manning will have been disappointed.
Sheffield United vs Bristol City Betting Tips: Sheffield to win & Under 2.5 goals
Both sides go into this game in good form, with the hosts having won six of their last seven games and Bristol City unbeaten in their last five.
But I simply believe that Sheffield United have the better form and the Blades also have a solid home record against Bristol City. They won each of the last three meetings with the Robins at this ground without conceding a goal and I expect a similar result on Tuesday.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Sheffield United vs Bristol City prediction: 1-0

Bristol City team news
Bristol City didn't pick up any injuries in the draw with Hull City last time out, so it won't be a surprise if head coach Liam Manning sticks with most of the team that started that game.
Anis Mehmeti's goal in that game took his tally to 12 in the Championship this season, and the Albanian international is likely to be reunited with Twine and Armstrong up front.
