Sheffield United will welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Bramall Lane on Sunday as they conclude their 2023-24 Premier League campaign. Sheffield are set to finish dead-last in the league standings while Tottenham need just one point from this game to ensure a fifth-place finish and a spot in the UEFA Europa League next season.
The hosts' losing streak extended to six games last week as they suffered a 1-0 away loss at Everton. They failed to score for the first time in five games in that loss and will look to return to goalscoring ways.
The visitors won 2-1 against Burnley last week but failed to build on that form and suffered a 2-0 home loss to Manchester City in their midweek clash, with Erling Haaland bagging a second-half brace.

Sheffield United vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction
The Blades have registered just three wins in 37 league games and have conceded 101 goals in these games. They have suffered six consecutive losses and are winless in their last 10 home games, thus the home advantage is unlikely to make a difference for them in this match.
Spurs have not fared much better, losing five of their last six games. They are winless in three of their last five away games, failing to score in three games in that period.
While both teams have endured a poor run of form, Tottenham have a better squad and should be able to capitalize against Sheffield to record a comfortable win.
Prediction: Sheffield United 1-3 Tottenham Hotspur
