England – Premier League | Manchester City VS Sheffield Utd; Saturday, 30 December at 23:00 GMT +8

Manchester City, following a 1-3 Premier League win against Everton, will aim for more success after a 1-3 record. In that game, they had 72% possession and 23 attempts at goal, with Phil Foden, Julián Álvarez, and Bernardo Silva scoring goals. Everton had 8 attempts and 2 on target, with Jack Harrison scoring for them. Manchester City has not been beaten by Sheffield United in their last nine matches, a long unbeaten run.

Sheffield United are aiming to improve their form after a defeat against Luton Town in their last Premier League game. In that game, they had 51% possession and 21 attempts at goal, with six on target. However, they have struggled to score goals in their last six matches, with only four goals scored. The Blades have also seen a collective goal aggregate equal 13. Sheffield United have not won an away match in the past nine matches, and the team’s performance could be affected in this match.

Guardiola aims to maintain a settled selection following a win against Everton, but John Stones, Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, and Jeremy Doku are set to miss out due to injury.

Jayden Bogle returns to the Blades after missing Luton’s defeat, but Chris Basham and John Egan are likely to remain sidelined. Scottish forward Oli McBurnie is expected to lead the attack.
