Aston Villa tipped to struggle against Sheffield United

Aston Villa host Sheffield United in the Championship on Friday aiming to prove they can force their way into the race for promotion.

Villa head into the game ninth in the table, four points behind the top six after winning just once this year.

The Blades are three points off top spot and Sky Sports‘ pundit David Prutton has tipped them to inflict more misery on the home side by recording a 2-1 victory at Villa Park (9/1 with Sky Bet).

“It is too many draws that are hurting Villa at the moment,” he said.
