Sheffield Wednesday vs Derby County Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Steve Ashfield | in League One Predictions
Third placed Sheffield Wednesday host Derby County in the final match of the regular League One season. Wednesday are confirmed as finishing third in the table and could well meet Derby again in the play-off semi-final if Derby finish sixth. The Yorkshire side had been looking good to win automatic promotion but their form faltered and it's Plymouth and Ipswich who have booked their places in next season's Championship. Wednesday went six league games without a win at just the wrong time. They've picked up well since then though with four wins in five league games with 12 goals scored. Their hope will be that this form can be continued into the play-offs and win them promotion. Home form has seen them win 15 out of 22 league games with just one defeat. That loss was to Barnsley last September and they've gone 18 home league games without defeat since then with nine of the last 11 being won.
It's a nervous afternoon for Derby County who are in the final promotion play-off position. With this final game to come, they lead seventh placed Peterborough United by two points. A win will see them confirm their place in the play-offs and could finish fifth as they trail Bolton by only a couple of points. A draw might be enough unless Peterborough win at Barnsley by a three-goal margin. Losing this match will only see them fail to reach the play-offs if Peterborough win. All a bit nervous then for the Rams who are unbeaten in their last six league games but three have been drawn. Two of those matches had seen Derby take the lead. Away form has seen Derby win eight of their 22 league games with seven draws and the same number of defeats. Four of their last eight on the road have been lost. Back Sheffield Wednesday to get a narrow win here and leave Derby hoping for a good performance by Barnsley.
