Sheffield Wednesday Preview – Can Owls continue good start?
Sheffield Wednesday have made an impressive start to this new season as The Owls have suffered just one defeat in their opening six games of this new term, that being a 2-0 loss away from home at Peterborough United but Darren Moore’s side have also picked up four wins in the process.
League wins against MK Dons, Charlton Athletic and Bolton Wanderers along with a 2-0 home win over Championship new-boys, Sunderland, in the 1st round of the League Cup should give the hosts plenty of confidence as they look to seal their place in the 3rd round of this competition.
Rochdale Preview – Can Dale halt losing streak?
A heavy 3-0 loss away from home at Swindon Town on the weekend condemned Rochdale to a third defeat on the trot in League Two and indeed handed Dale a sixth loss in their last seven games overall in all competitions.
Results away from home have also been poor as Rochdale have managed to capture just four wins in their last 14 outings on the road and includes 10 defeats within this period as well, so confidence may well be fragile ahead of this 2nd round cup-tie.
