Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United: The Owls vs The Wasps

Sheffield Wednesday’s form has dropped in recent League One games after they slipped into back-to-back 2-0 defeats. Cambridge also lost their last game against Plymouth. Yet, both sides are among the highest-scoring teams in the league, so we expect their clash to be a goal fest. Hence, our Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United match prediction is over 2.5 goals.

Sheffield Wednesday picked up their third loss in eleven games with a 2-0 defeat to Doncaster, despite getting off to a positive start in the league. Their second game in October was a 5-0 victory over Wimbledon, another high-scoring game since their 7-2 demolition of Bromley. 

The Owls now have 20 goals in eleven league games, the same number as Cambridge with one less game played. The Wasps extended their scoring run to 12 games despite losing 3-2 to Plymouth.  They also hold a narrow 2-point lead over Sheffield and will be eager to stretch that gap by snatching all three points.

Still, the Owls have won each of their past three meetings and are favourites to win again. Yet, being aware of the attacking threat from Cambridge, Sheffield Wednesday will look to outscore the away side. This should result in lots of attacking play from both sides, with more than three goals scored by full time.

Key points

  • The Wasps have scored in every league game played this season.

  • Sheffield Wednesday have scored over 4.5 goals twice in their last seven games.

  • Both teams have scored 20 goals in League One this season.

  • Two of their past three league games ended with more than four goals by full time.

  • Their last H2H clash ended in a 5-0 victory for Sheffield Wednesday.

Conclusion

Sheffield Wednesday, who can go one point above Cambridge if they win on Tuesday, have every reason to believe they can win after three consecutive victories over the away side. The Owls also have the same number of goals as Cambridge, although they have played one game less. 

Cambridge’s goal-scoring form shows they might be able to cause problems at the back for Sheffield. Yet, the Wasps have conceded more goals, revealing vulnerabilities that Sheffield can exploit for another high-scoring win like their last H2H clash, which ended in a 5-0 victory for the Owls. Hence, our Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United prediction is Over 2.5 Goals.
