Promoted side Notts County continues to have it rough in League One as they prepare to face Sheffield Wednesday. Heading into this encounter, hosts Notts County are second from bottom while Wednesday are sixth. The hosts have scored just once in the last four league games, and our prediction will not favor them.
The Magpies advanced to League One through the playoffs in League Two after finishing fifth. A league higher hasn’t been smooth, as they’ve only managed a win out of nine games.
It didn’t all start on a slope as they avoided defeat in the opening five games. However, they have lost each of the last four, with the latest a 2-0 reverse at Wycombe.
Meanwhile, Sheffield Wednesday are looking to return to the Championship at the first time of asking. The target is going well so far, with Wednesday sitting in the playoff positions.
The visitors are in superb form, having recorded just two defeats across 13 matches this season. To this game, they carry a nine-match undefeated streak with six wins in there.
Their latest outing was a 5-0 defeat of AFC Wimbledon, their fourth clean sheet in the last six matches. In each of their last four matches, they scored 2+ goals.
The Owls are unbeaten away from home this season, winning four of five outings.

Our Notts County vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction
Though a win here would likely get Notts County out of the relegation region, it doesn’t seem likely that they can garner three points. They’ve even struggled to get goals and are so far one of two sides averaging under a goal per game in the league.
While they’ve failed to score in three of their last four league games, their opponents have kept four clean sheets in their last six outings. Wednesday have the second-best defence in the league, and our prediction for Notts County v Sheffield Wednesday is for Sheffield Wednesday to win to nil.
