Matchday three of the Championship finds Wrexham and Sheffield Wednesday still in search of their season-opening wins. Starting the weekend in 19th place, Wrexham plays host to Sheffield Wednesday, who are bottom of the pile. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Wrexham have found life in the second tier tough after finishing second in League One last season. Starting off their season was relegated Premier League side Southampton, a game Wrexham suffered a 2-1 loss in.
Then came a home match against West Bromwich Albion, and that too was beyond the Red Dragons, who lost 3-2. In between, the Welsh side recorded a win on post-match penalties against Hull City in the League Cup.
Sheffield Wednesday had a similar start to the season, falling to relegated Premier League side Leicester City on matchday one. They had some reprieve in the League Cup, beating Bolton Wanderers 4-3 on post-match penalties after playing to a 3-3 draw.
However, they couldn’t carry the same to their second league game, falling 3-0 at home to Stoke City. Having finished last season on a poor run, Sheffield Wednesday have just one win in their last 11 league matches.
In their three matches across all competitions this season, the Owls have already conceded eight goals.

Our Wrexham vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction
These two sides have had an almost identical start to the season. The striking difference is Sheffield Wednesday’s failure to score in their last match. That’s what has placed the visitors at the bottom of the standings. The two teams have been involved in high-scoring matches.
We expect that as they both seek to rise from losing starts in the season, they’ll be more invested in attack. With that in mind, our prediction for Wrexham v Sheffield Wednesday is for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals.
