Bristol City
    Sheffield Wednesday

      Under 2.5 Match Goals

      Reason for tip

      Bristol City are involved in more low-scoring games than any other side in the Championship this season, and there is little to suggest that trend changes here. City’s last three league matches have all stayed under 2.5 goals, while confidence in front of goal is clearly low. Sheffield Wednesday are even worse going forward, having failed to score in six of their last eight league games. With both attacks misfiring, a tight contest looks inevitable.

      Bristol City 1-0

      Reason for tip

      A narrow home win makes sense in the correct-score market. Bristol City have avoided defeat in six of their last seven meetings with Sheffield Wednesday and should have enough control to edge a side rooted to the bottom of the table. Wednesday’s away record is grim, with their last three road trips ending in defeat, and they continue to struggle badly for goals. City are not free-scoring either, but against a team with just one league win all season, a scrappy 1-0 home victory looks the most realistic outcome.

      Bristol City vs Sheffield Wednesday Predictions

      Goals likely to be scarce at Ashton Gate

      Bristol City have had more games with under 2.5 goals in the Championship than any other team this term, and Saturday’s clash with Sheffield Wednesday at Ashton Gate is unlikely to be an exception. Gerhard Struber’s side have seen under 2.5 goals in their last three games, and under 2.5 goals looks the best bet.

      Bristol City are 11th in the Championship, 13 places above rock-bottom Sheffield Wednesday, with 47 points separating the two teams. City have won 11 of their 27 games this season, while Wednesday have just one win.

      Bristol City have not won in three Championship games and Sheffield Wednesday are struggling to get wins, having failed to win in 28 of their last 29. However, Bristol City have avoided defeat in six of their last seven against Wednesday.

      Both teams are struggling to find the net. Bristol City have failed to score in three straight Championship games, while Sheffield Wednesday have gone six of their last eight matches without a goal.

      A narrow 1-0 victory for Bristol City looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score market, especially considering Sheffield Wednesday’s last three Championship road trips have all ended in defeat.
