Sheffield Wednesday Preview – Can Wednesday reduce 12-point deficit asap?
This objective for Sheffield Wednesday and manager, Garry Monk, in this season’s Championship couldn’t be any clearer – avoid relegation. There can be no other plans in place other than to reduce the 12-point penalty that was handed down to The Owls prior to the season kicking off, and the hosts have already eroded four points off their deficit to date.
A 2-0 opening day win of the season at Cardiff City was the perfect start for Wednesday as they set about seeking parity with the other clubs as soon as possible and they followed that win up with a solid point in a 0-0 draw at home with newly-relegated, Watford, from last season’s Premier League.
However, a 2-0 loss away at high-flying Bristol City has pegged The Owls back and they’ll be keen to bounce back with the points at home against an inconsistent QPR outfit at Hillsborough, whom they thrashed 3-0 at Loftus Road last time out in the Championship back in July.
QPR Preview – Can QPR produce greater consistency?
QPR were bundled out of the League Cup at an early stage by Plymouth Argyle which is perhaps just as well as the visitors resemble a side that are too easily distracted from the matter in hand, and that is to produce better results on a consistent basis following another season to forget in the Championship last term.
The London outfit finished in a mid-table position of 13th and more is expected of them this time around; a 2-0 home win over Nottingham Forest on the opening day of the season brought early promise but they’ve since reverted to type, losing 3-2 away at newcomers, Coventry City and being held to a 1-1 draw at home by Middlesbrough.
If QPR truly believe they can challenge for a top six finish this season then they’ll need to improve their results away from home which yielded just two wins out of their final 14 matches on their travels in the second tier.
