Fleetwood Town
WLLLDL
Fleetwood Town will be hoping to return to winning ways here after a 2-3 League One loss in their previous game against Burton Albion.
For Fleetwood Town, goals were scored by Jayden Stockley (58') and Promise Omochere (94'). Deji Oshilaja (60'), Tom Hamer (80') and Charlie Kirk (96') scored for Burton Albion.
It has been seldom in recent times where Fleetwood Town have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Fleetwood Town have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 games, letting in 10 goals on the way. While that may be of interest, it remains to be seen whether that trend will persist in this match or not.

There aren’t many selection issues, with just one fitness concern for the Fleetwood Town boss Scott Brown to be concerned with thanks to an almost full-strength set of players. Darnell Johnson (Achilles tendon rupture) is sidelined.

Prediction
Our thinking is that Fleetwood Town will have to work hard as a team to hit the back of the net against this Sheffield Wednesday outfit who we reckon should end up scoring and possibly keep a clean sheet as well.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a very even contest with a 0-1 advantage for Sheffield Wednesday at the end of the 90.
