Sheffield United and Bristol City go head-to-head shortly at Bramall Lane in the second leg of their Championship play-off semi-final, which can be viewed live on Sky Sports Main Event at 8pm.
Sheffield United are in pole position following their 3-0 win at Ashton Gate last week. Chris Wilder's side are now as short as 1/500 to progress to the Wembley final, with Bristol City out at 50/1 to conjure up a sensational comeback.
With kick-off fast-approaching, there's still time to read on for our best bets.

Sheffield United vs Bristol City Bet Builder Tips
Sheffield United will still be riding high after taking a commanding first leg lead, and I’m backing them to carry that momentum into the return leg at Bramall Lane, where they’re priced at 9/10 to win.
The Blades have been strong at home all season, winning 15 of their 23 league matches; a record bettered only by champions Leeds.
In contrast, Bristol City have struggled on the road, with just four away wins all season and only one victory in their last 15 away games, a run that stretches back to November.
To make matters worse for the visitors, they’ve failed to beat Sheffield United in any of their three meetings this season, losing twice.
I’m combining a home win with over 1 Sheffield United goals for a 5/4 bet builder with bet365.
Bristol City’s defence has been leaking goals, with no clean sheet in their last 12 games and 12 goals conceded in their last four, including two or more in each outing.
With Liam Manning’s side needing to chase the game, expect them to leave gaps - something the Blades are more than capable of exploiting.
For my second Bet Builder, I've honed in on Kieffer Moore to register 1+ shot on target and commit 2+ fouls, which is priced at 11/4 with bet365.
Moore hasn’t scored since December, but it’s certainly not for lack of effort: he’s had 25 shots since his last goal, including 12 in his last three outings. He’s also managed at least one shot on target in all three of those recent games.
On the disciplinary side, Moore’s been getting stuck in, committing seven fouls across his last three matches. Therefore, the 2+ fouls line is a very realistic selection in this 11/4 Bet Builder combo.
It's worth noting that if Moore is subbed off at any point, bet365's Sub On Play On feature means your bet carries over to who replaces him.
