You can ask me to study various strings for more than ten years. We will prepare some welfare events every day for everyone to choose and match.

At 3 a.m. on May 9, a battle that determines destiny is about to be staged. Bristol City (hereinafter referred to as "Putrajaya") faces Sheffield United at home

Putrajaya Putrajaya focuses on a 4-2-3-1 formation this season, and the forwards Conway (3 goals in the last 10 games) and Scott (2 assists in the last 10 games) are in good shape. However, the defense line suffered a heavy blow, and the main center Pulin (torn knee ligament) and Calvin (muscle strain) were reimbursed for the season, and left-back Tanner (ankle fracture) was unable to make an appearance. Coach Manning can only use 19-year-old Watkins and 35-year-old veteran Williams to partner with central defender, and the stability of the pair is really hard to reassure. Sheffield United focuses on a 3-4-1-2 formation, with forwards Brooks (12 goals and 4 assists in the Championship) and McBoene (4 goals in the last 10 games) as the team's scoring guarantee. But the midfield core Abrast (groin strain) was reimbursed for the season, and the defender Ahmed Hodzic (red card suspension) was absent. Coach Wilder can only piece together the temporary defense line between Norrington Davis and Egan, and the defense risks are huge.

Historical confrontation: psychological advantage, opportunity for revenge

The two sides have faced each other in the last 5 times, and Sheffield United has the upper hand with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the first leg, he was tied by Putrajaya 1-1 at home. Sheffield United had a 65% possession rate of the ball, 18 shots (5 shots on the right), and Putrajaya had 8 shots (2 shots on the right). That draw made Sheffield unwilling. In this battle, they were eager to use a victory to wash away the shame. Putrajaya also has its own ideas. The draw in the first round gave them confidence. With the cheers of home fans, they look forward to completing revenge and eliminating their opponents to advance.

Shefei United

has recovered recently, conceding only 0.9 goals per game in the last 10 games, and the offense and defense ends are more balanced. Outstanding away games, with only 2 draws in the last 15 away games, with a winning rate of 70%, and strong competitiveness.

Match prediction

Putrajaya plays at home, and the support of fans is a major advantage, but the potential for injury on the defense line may become a fatal weakness. Sheffield United has strong away combat effectiveness, but the lack of personnel in the midfield and backcourt will also affect the team's performance. It is predicted that Sheffield United has a high probability of winning, and the score may be 1-0 or 2-1.
