18th-placed Blackburn Rovers will look to bounce back when they travel to face bottom-placed Sheffield Wednesday in this Championship round 24 clash on Monday. Can the Riversiders defeat the Owls to return to winning ways after Friday's stalemate versus Middlesbrough? Here is our prediction.
After a solid 12th-place finish last season, Sheffield Wednesday are navigating a grueling Championship campaign this season. They head into this game rock bottom of the standings with a negative point (-8) due to point deductions and dwindling on-field fortunes.
Henrik Pedersen's side's long winless run continued on Friday in a four-goal thriller against Hull City. They raced into the lead twice, but were eventually held to a dramatic 2–2 draw by the visitors. This stalemate against Hull City extended their winless run to 16 Championship games (D6, L10). They have also failed to win any of their last 12 home games.
Blackburn Rovers also dropped points in their last game, playing out a goalless draw against Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium on Friday. They have avoided defeat in five of their last six games and boast a solid 3–2–1 record in their last six away games.
