✨ Prediction
We’ve got the feeling that Exeter City will need to put in a solid display to breach the defence of this Sheffield Wednesday outfit who we think will be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.
We therefore fancy a very even contest with a 0-1 winning score for Sheffield Wednesday when the full-time whistle blows.
A close call.
