Oxford United to Win

Reason for tip

Oxford look the best bet at home to Sheffield Wednesday. The visitors are in dreadful shape, winless in 38 league games and without an away victory in 19 straight Championship trips. They also struggle badly for goals and have the worst defensive record in the division. Oxford are far from perfect, but against a side this fragile, home advantage should count.

Oxford United 2-0

Reason for tip

Oxford 2-0 is the correct-score pick. Sheffield Wednesday regularly fail to score and have already suffered multiple 2-0 defeats this season. Their defence leaks goals and they rarely keep clean sheets, while Oxford games often see one side blank. With Wednesday’s attack blunt and their back line vulnerable, a straightforward two-goal home win without reply fits the evidence.

Oxford can capitalise on Wednesday’s misery

Oxford should be backed to get a home win over Sheffield Wednesday at the Kassam Stadium on Saturday. The visitors have lost 15 of their last 18 away games in the Championship.

Oxford are two places above rock-bottom Sheffield Wednesday in the table, with 47 points separating the two teams. Oxford sit 22nd with ten wins, 14 draws and 20 defeats, while Sheffield Wednesday have just one win so far.

Sheffield Wednesday’s struggles on the road are well documented. They have not won any of their last 19 Championship away games and have tasted victory just once in their last 26 trips away from home. Overall, they have gone 38 league matches without recording a win.

The away side are not scoring enough goals, with no team failing to find the net in more Championship games this season than Sheffield Wednesday’s 23 in 44. They have gone four of their last six away games without a goal.

The away side have been vulnerable defensively recently. No team has shipped more goals in the Championship this season than the 84 goals Sheffield Wednesday have conceded, and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 20 of their last 21 league games.

A 2-0 home win for Oxford looks the best correct-score bet. Four of Oxford’s last six Championship games have ended with at least one of the sides failing to score, and Sheffield Wednesday have suffered six 2-0 losses this season.
