Manchester City’s surprising draw with Crystal Palace on Saturday left it a little further behind in the Premier League standings. Liverpool can clinch the title with 30 more points even if City matches win for win … and those last three points, in the current scenario, would come April 4 when City hosts Liverpool. But City, for the meantime, is still mathematically in the race to defend its title, though it has a tough match on Tuesday against a Sheffield United team that may reach European qualification in its first year of promotion.

Manchester City vs. Sheffield United: Preview, recent form, odds, upcoming fixtures
Manchester City (Last 5 Premier League matches: LWWWD) thought it had pulled off an escape against Palace on Saturday when Sergio Aguero led a comeback with 82nd- and 87th-minute goals. A Fernandinho own-goal in the last minute of regulation, however, resulted in the draw and a loss of two crucial points in the title race. City hasn’t had a bad season at all despite its five losses—it’s just that it’s chasing a team having a historic season.
Sheffield United (Last 5 Premier League matches: DLLWD) found a late goal against Arsenal on Saturday to salvage a point but dropped to seventh in what is becoming a keen race for the European places in the table. Even if the fifth-place position the club held a month ago is a high-water mark for the season, the Blades have put together a remarkable season considering they were second in the Championship a year ago.
Odds
Manchester City is the favorite according to William Hill’s bookmakers, with -240 odds (wager $240 to win $100), while the Blades are +650, and a draw (which would have been the right bet in the City-Palace match) is at +370 odds.
Upcoming Fixtures
Manchester City, Sunday, Jan. 26 vs. Fulham (FA Cup); Wednesday, Jan. 29 vs. Manchester United (Carabao Cup)
Sheffield United, Saturday, Jan. 25 at Milwall (FA Cup); Saturday, Feb. 1 at Crystal Palace (Premier League)
