Sheffield Wednesday

WLDWLD ⚖

Sheffield Wednesday head into this fixture following a 0-0 Championship tied result vs West Bromwich Albion.

It’s not been often in recent games where Sheffield Wednesday have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Sheffield Wednesday have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, leaking 9 goals in the process. Such a trend isn’t assured to be sustained into this game, however.

Coming into this clash, Sheffield Wednesday are without a home win in the past 2 league matches.

West Bromwich Albion

DWWWWD 📈

A succession of effective showings from the West Bromwich Albion defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 3 from their past 6 fixtures combined. During the same time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves amounts to 8.

Coming into this clash, West Bromwich Albion are undefeated in their last 3 away league matches.

👥 Head to head

A look at their past head-to-head meetings dating back to 29/12/2018 tells us that Sheffield Wednesday have won 1 of these & West Bromwich Albion 3, with the tally of draws being 2.

12 goals were scored between the two sides in this period, with 5 from The Owls and 7 belonging to The Baggies. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.

The previous league contest featuring these clubs was Championship match day 7 on 28/09/2024 which ended up with the score at Sheffield Wednesday 0-0 West Bromwich Albion.

📰 Team News: Sheffield Wednesday

We think that The Owls could make use of the 3-4-3 formation for this one, utilising James Beadle, Liam Palmer, Michael Ihiekwe, Akin Famewo, Yan Valery, Shea Charles, Barry Bannan, Marvin Johnson, Josh Windass, Iké Ugbo and Anthony Musaba.

🗞️ Team News: West Bromwich Albion

Out of a mainly available squad, there is just the lone fitness worry for the West Bromwich Albion boss Carlos Corberán to contend with. Daryl Dike (Achilles tendon surgery) misses out for this game.

We believe The Baggies seem likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, settling for Alex Palmer, Darnell Furlong, Kyle Bartley, Semi Ajayi, Torbjørn Heggem, Uros Racic, Alex Mowatt, Tom Fellows, John Swift, Karlan Grant and Josh Maja.

🔮 Prediction

Our assessment here is that Sheffield Wednesday will really need to work well to register a score against this West Bromwich Albion lineup who we reckon should be able to grind out a win.

We therefore see a very competitive game with a 0-1 winning score for West Bromwich Albion at the end of this game.

Hopefully it’s a good one.
