class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Spurs have been involved in plenty of high-scoring Premier League games recently and Goal is expecting another entertaining clash against the Blades
Tottenham will be looking to keep the pressure on fourth-placed Chelsea when they host relegated Sheffield United in the Premier League on Sunday.
Spurs began the weekend in seventh place, five points behind the Blues, and will almost certainly need to win their remaining five fixtures to have any chance of qualifying for next year’s Champions League.
Tottenham vs Sheffield United Latest Odds
Caretaker manager Ryan Mason won his first match in charge against Southampton, and bet365 make it just 1/4 (1.25) that he continues his 100 per cent record in the Premier League.
The Blades recorded a rare success last weekend with victory over Brighton, but they are still rank 11/1 (12.0) outsiders to pick up maximum points for only the sixth time this season.
Only two of Sheffield United’s matches this season have finished in a draw and it is 5/1 (6.0) that they secure a point in this one.

Spurs defender Matt Doherty is back in training and could feature, but fellow full-back Ben Davies is still out.

Tottenham vs Sheffield United Preview
Spurs’ quest for a Champions League place has been on the back foot for most of the season but it has come to a screeching halt in recent weeks, with two wins from six leaving them behind the chasing pack.
It is still possible that Mason’s men do claim a seat at Europe’s top table next term and their recent scoring record will at least give them hope that they can push all the way, having netted 18 times in their last nine Premier League outings.
They will almost certainly have little trouble increasing that tally against the Blades, who have conceded 39 goals in their 18 games against top-half clubs this season, losing 17 of those fixtures.
