Sheffield Wednesday Preview – Owls can strike at home

Sheffield Wednesday have had an excellent campaign on home soil in League One this season.

They are W9 D4 L2 at Hillsborough this season.

The Owls did suffer a setback there on the weekend however, losing 2-0 to league leaders Rotherham.

But given the strength of the opposition in that one, it was an excusable defeat.

Sheffield Wednesday are in touch with the playoffs and need to keep churning out results at home to get there.

With four wins in their last five at Hillsborough, there does appear to be a reasonable chance that they will bounce back.

The Owls have done brilliantly in defence, conceding at an average of 0.8 goals per home game this season.

In the match outright for football betting, the win for Sheffield Wednesday is at 7/10* (odds recorded 15:12 GMT on February 14th 2022 at Bet365)

Our betting prediction:
Draw/Sheff Weds HT/FT

Earlier this season when Sheffield Wednesday met Accrington, they picked up a 3-2 win.

Considering that both of Wednesday’s home defeats this season have come against teams above them in the table, they may well pick off Accrington again.

Wednesday night’s opponents are down in 12th, four places behind the Owls.

Of Sheffield Wednesday’s home wins, five have been by a one goal margin.

They have been a slightly stronger second half team, scoring 65% of their home goals after the half time break in matches at Hillsborough.

A Draw/Sheffield Wednesday Halftime/Fulltime bet is at a quote of 4/1* (odds recorded 15:12 GMT on February 14th 2022 at Bet365).

 

Accrington Preview – Can the visitors hold out?

There have been back to back league wins produced by Accrington in the division.

Those were both at home however, against Oxford and the relegation-threatened Crewe.

The away form of Accrington this season doesn’t make for great reading.

They are W3 D3 L8 in this campaign on their travels.

It has been back to back road less for them, going down against Ipswich and Rotherham.

Those are teams who are, like Sheffield Wednesday, above them in the table.

Accrrington have lost all away games played against current top-ten teams this season.

In five of those six defeats they conceded at least two goals.

In the match outright for football betting, the win for Accrington places them as 4/1 underdogs* (odds recorded 15:12 GMT on February 14th 2022 at Bet365).

Accrington have averaged under a goal per away game in this campaign.

That shortfall of goals has seen them fail to score in two of their last three road games.

So can they muster up enough of a challenge to at least hold out for a point?

They have been level at the half time break in 9 of their 14 away games.

So at least until half time they may.

Of their eight away losses this season, five of them have been by a one goal margin only.
