Sheffield Wednesday vs Blackburn Rovers Predictions

Blackburn can capitalise on Wednesday struggles

The best bet is Blackburn to get the away win. Sheffield Wednesday have struggled at the back this season and they could be in trouble against a Blackburn side who have the quality to take advantage.

Sheffield Wednesday are bottom of the league with just one win so far, while Blackburn are six places and 34 points above them. They have seven wins, five draws and ten defeats.

The hosts are enduring a rough spell. Six of Sheffield Wednesday’s last eight Championship matches have ended in defeat, and they have failed to win in 23 of their last 24 games.

The hosts’ struggles up front are a concern. Sheffield Wednesday have been disappointing in front of goal at home this season, scoring just seven times in 12 Championship games – an average of 0.58 goals per game. No team has failed to score in more league games this season than Wednesday’s nine in 22.

Sheffield Wednesday look frail defensively. They have gone 23 Championship games without keeping a clean sheet.

Sheffield Wednesday have lost six of their last eight home matches in the Championship, and a 1-0 away win for Blackburn looks a decent correct-score bet.
