We said: Sheffield United 1-1 Norwich City

Saturday is certainly an important game for both sides at Bramall Lane as they fight to end tough runs, but the two teams both look far from their best and we do not see either outclassing the other and taking all three points. As such, we predict a low-scoring draw, extending their respective waits for three-point hauls. Read more.
