Wrexham is looking to continue its dream promotion season in the Championship when it travels to Sheffield Wednesday. The Red Dragons occupy the 6th spot, sitting in the final promotion playoff slot. Meanwhile, the last-placed relegation-bound Owl need a miracle turnaround, and fast. See our best bet in this match prediction.
Wrexham just took another season-defining win in its latest outing, beating QPR 3-2 at home. And it's safe to say the Red Dragons are now flying high after three straight away wins and five wins in their last seven on all grounds. They've landed in the promotion playoffs and will fight to the death to keep their place.
In fact, it is just six points off third-placed Ipswich, and can cut that gap to two if they beat Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday. However, just as The Owls made life hell for Wrexham in the first meeting this season (a 2-2 draw), the home team plans on doing so again, or even taking all three points.
However, where that morale will come from is the real question. Sheffield has now lost five games straight, been defeated in 15 of its last 22 league games, and last won a Championship game in September. The Owls now rightfully occupy the last position and are on the verge of elimination.
