A Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 correct score at William Hill is trading at 17/2, while the 1-0 win for the home side is trading at 11/2. Wednesday won 1-0 at Huddersfield during the regular season and that is three clean sheets in three against the Terriers that the Owls have collected. Sheffield Wednesday to win to nil at William Hill is trading at a price of 12/5. In the anytime goalscorer market, Fernando Forestieri and Jordan Rhodes are 13/8 joint favourites. Sheffield Wednesday produced a fine W5 L1 record in their end of season Championship run-in. Across the course of the regular season, they went W15 D2 L6 at Hillsborough and have won three of their last four there.
Huddersfield really needed to take some kind of advantage on home soil you would feel because this is a tough away game and was always going to be for them. Huddersfield really fell a bit flat towards the end of the regular season and now have gone just W1 D2 L3 in their last six games played. They have failed to score in each of their last three games played which is a concern. Sheffield Wednesday to win to nil at William Hill is a quote of 12/5 and looks value because of the Terriers’ goal drought. Huddersfield’s away record for the season reads W10 D4 L9 and they really struggled on the road in their run-in, going W1 D1 L3 in their last five road games, failing to hit the back of the net in each of the three defeats in that sequence. They have failed to win any of their last three games at Hillsborough too (D1 L2) and are on a four-match streak against the Owls without scoring against them. The Terriers have netted in just two of their last eight games (home and away) against the Owls. Elias Kachunga and Nahki wells are 12/5 anytime goalscorer options for the visitors.
