Football odds: Few goals expected as play-off contenders clash
Under 2.5 Goals certainly looks a warm order at 8/13 (Stan James) and it might even be worth braving Under 1.5 Goals at 2/1 (William Hill) considering that a point wouldn’t be a bad outcome against a Cardiff side who sneaked into the play-off places last weekend.
Sheffield United tend to go the opposite way at home, with the Blades involved in plenty of high-scoring matches at Bramall Lane this season.
