Stoke City Preview – Can Stoke return to winning ways?
It’s worrying times for Stoke City fans as their side have now failed to win any of their last nine matches in the Championship and although there’s no danger of relegation for The Potters, any aspirations of a possible top six finish appear to be fading fast as they’re now seven points adrift of 6th placed Bournemouth.
Six draws within this nine-game sequence has at least kept Stoke City in the top half of the Championship and this upcoming clash at home against lowly Sheffield Wednesday represents a perfect opportunity for Michael O’Neill’s side to return to winning ways.
Having won just two of their last eight matches at their bet365 Stadium though, backing the hosts with the draw no bet option appears to be the best strategy here, especially as Stoke tend to be involved in a number of draws.
Sheffield Wednesday Preview – Can Owls continue revival?
There’s maybe no tougher place to continue a revival in form than at the bet365 Stadium on a cold midweek night but Sheffield Wednesday will make their way to the Potteries on the back of just two defeats out of their last nine matches overall in the Championship.
This much improved run of results have seen The Owls pick up six wins out of these nine matches as the visitors have clawed their way back level on points with the teams around them after being handed a six-point deduction before the season began.
However, it should be noted that five of these six victories have been collected on home turf at Hillsborough while results away from home continue to be a major concern; The Owls have won just one of their last 11 away from home, losing eight of these.
