Why we picked this for Cardiff City vs Sheffield United

For this Championship fixture we go with Over 2.5 goals for Cardiff City vs Sheffield United, at 90% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Cardiff City's games produced 2.8 goals on average, 2 of them over 2.5. Sheffield United's games averaged 2.2, with 2 of 5 over the line. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.

The head-to-head points the other way: only 2 of their last 5 meetings finished over 2.5 goals. Older meetings say less about how these teams play now, so recent form counts for more in our numbers. At 90%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 0-2. The pick lost.
