Derby County vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Sheffield Wednesday have a last chance to fight for their Championship place when they travel to Derby County, who are also not safe going to the final day. Derby have so far managed 43 points and are just above the bottom three by two points. Sheffield have 40 points, in 23rd place. Six straight losses have put a question on Wayne Rooney’s ability to lead Derby and it is unlikely that he will stay on after the season. They have managed just one win in the last 14 Championship matches ahead of this game and in their last four games, they’ve conceded two goals or more. Going to this game they have two straight home losses and just one win in six, with one clean sheet. In their last six meetings with Sheffield, they’ve kept no clean sheet.
This game is a must-win for Sheffield as well. Their fate is no longer fully in their hands but they can only stay up with a win, nothing else. They’ve had a better run than Derby, collecting five points in their last four games and have two clean sheets in the last five matches. They are coming here from a 0-0 draw with Nottingham Forest and will want to improve on it. A run of just three wins in 17 matches points to a weak side and having lost three of their last six matches, Sheffield will need a massive improvement to bag three points here. They have three straight away losses in the Championship and have won just two in the last 12.
