Sheffield Wednesday will host fellow strugglers Oxford United when the EFL Championship continues this weekend for the 12 round of matches. The home team enters the weekend rock bottom in the league standings, while Oxford are three points above them in 20th. We have a prediction for this match below.
Sheffield Wednesday are in a rut and are desperate for a spark that could turn around their campaign. Henrik Pedersen’s men have won just one of 11 fixtures and have lost seven times.
They have conceded a whopping 23 goals and scored just nine of their own. The Owls, who have lost three consecutive matches, extended their winless run to five games when they fell 1-0 at home to Middlesbrough.
Though they have done better than Sheffield Wednesday, Oxford United are still in the relegation picture and could fall into the red zone with a loss this weekend.
Gary Rowett’s men have amassed nine points and sit just one point above the bottom three. They have won twice and drawn a further three fixtures, scoring 11 goals and conceding 14.
The Yellows, who have avoided defeat in their last three trips to Hillsborough, fell to a solitary goal away to Wrexham in midweek.

Our Sheffield Wednesday vs Oxford United Prediction
Goals haven’t flowed freely for both Oxford and Wednesday this season, and in recent outings, they've really dried up. Wednesday have managed just one goal in their last three games, while Oxford have only scored twice in five outings.
This points to a low-scoring affair here, which has sort of been the norm in recent meetings between these two. Considering that both teams are in the relegation picture, a closely fought battle should ensue. Our prediction for Sheffield Wednesday v Oxford United is for less than 2.5 goals.
