Can Sheffield Wednesday continue their improved Championship form against a Watford side that has real issues when playing away from home? Will our prediction for this match back the home-town Owls for the win, or can the Hornets sting the home side by landing an unexpected road victory?
Historically, the visiting Hornets have had the better of things in past years, but recent form suggests that this is an opportunity for the Owls to pick up another three points.
Danny Rohl’s Sheff Wed team have lost just one of their last six games, that coming against high-flying Burnley in a 2-0 home defeat. They have won three and drawn two of those other five games. Most recently drawing 0-0 at home with Swansea and then last weekend earning a vital 2-1 win away at Portsmouth. That result left them 13th in the table.
Despite their dismal away record, Watford lie seventh, thanks to picking up 16 of their 19 points this season in home games. Away from home, their form is terrible. Five defeats in a row with 15 goals conceded in total in their six games so far.
Their most recent games saw a 3-0 away defeat at Luton with a 2-1 defeat at Leeds and then last weekend, the Hornets beat Blackburn 1-0 at home.

Our Sheffield Wednesday vs Watford Prediction
Our prediction for Sheffield Wednesday vs. Watford in the Championship is: Sheffield Wednesday to win.
The key part of the data for this game is Watford's complete lack of away form. Five defeats in a row, some of them heavy and with just two goals scored, paints a picture of a team struggling on their travels. Wednesday have by no means been exemplary at home, but their recent form is much improved compared to the early season. Combine those two factors and the data just about suggests a win for the Owls is the bet to back.
