Both teams have shown vulnerability in defense recently, which could lead to scoring opportunities. Birmingham City, in particular, has been aggressive in attack, suggesting they might capitalize on any defensive lapses by Sheffield United.

With odds of 56.60 for ‘Away Team Not To Score In 1st Half,’ this bet suggests a belief that Sheffield United may struggle to find the back of the net early on.
