Sheffield Wednesday Preview – Can Owls win six-pointer?
A desperate relegation battle will unfold at Hillsborough on Saturday as Sheffield Wednesday and Birmingham City clash in a relegation ‘six-pointer’ and although Sheffield Wednesday have lost two of their last three matches, the hosts have turned things around of late.
The Owls have lost just three of their last 10 matches overall and amongst these results, the hosts have also picked up six wins which has kept them in touch with the teams around them near the bottom of the table but just a point away from safety.
Sheffield Wednesday have produced impressive results at home as well with the hosts winning their last five matches on the trot while 11 of Sheffield Wed’s 14 home matches have also resulted in under 2.5 goals.
Birmingham City Preview – Can Blues grab lifeline?
Birmingham City are currently experiencing a torrid sequence of results in the Championship as The Blues have managed to collect just one win out of their last 13 matches overall which has dumped the visitors into the relegation mire at the bottom of the second tier.
Birmingham’s one highlight during what has been a very testing time for the west midlands club was a 1-0 win away at Middlesbrough but nine defeats within this 13-match sequence makes this another tough trip for The Blues.
However, Birmingham’s best work has been achieved away from home as four of Birmingham’s six wins have been collected on the road, while goals have also been scarce as 11 of Birmingham’s 15 away matches have also seen under 2.5 goals.
