Sheffield Wednesday will be at home to Derby County in the two sides’ next Championship assignment. Going into the game Sheffield Wednesday are 11th, six points ahead of Derby. Below is our prediction for the match.
Sheffield Wednesday have done well in recent meetings with Derby. The Owls are unbeaten in the last five meetings with Derby, winning three. However, things haven't been as rosy in recent games, with Sheffield coming here off the back of a 3-1 defeat at Preston.
That was the second straight time that they conceded three goals. At home in their last game, Sheffield Wed beat Stoke City to end a three-match winless run.
Derby County will start this game from a much lower position. They are six points above the drop zone and will hope to open a bigger gap with a win here.
The Rams will have to improve on their recent run to achieve that, as they are coming off two defeats in three matches. The latest of them was at home to Leeds United, a 1-0 defeat settled by Brenden Aaronson’s late goal.
In light of their poor away run, it will take Derby some effort to overcome the Owls. Paul Warne’s side has one win in 13 away matches.
