Sheffield Wednesday vs. Sunderland prediction: “Wheels are starting to come off.” The72
On Friday night, Sunderland will travel to Sheffield Wednesday in an attempt to recover from consecutive losses.
Going into the last 12 games of the season, Sunderland has had a fantastic season, and SAFC still has a chance to earn automatic promotion.However, following consecutive losses to Leeds United and Hull City, that likelihood has significantly decreased in recent weeks. Last weekend’s loss to Hull City even cost the Black Cats their undefeated home record.
However, the fact that Regis Le Bris’ team defeated Sheffield Wednesday 4-0 earlier this season will give them confidence.
Sheffield Wednesday has lost three of their previous four games going into this one. Last Saturday, third-place Burnley defeated them 4-0.
Due to their recent performance, the Owls were unable to capitalize on the inconsistency of the teams surrounding them, even if they had managed to get into the play-off picture.
Wednesday is now six points off of the top six and in 13th place in the rankings.
Here are some of our writers’ predictions for the match.
It appears that Sheffield Wednesday’s campaign will end in a mid-table position after they have lost ground in their outside bid for a play-off spot.
However, they still have a say in the promotion picture, and I wouldn’t be shocked if SWFC were to succeed in this.
“You just wonder if the wheels are starting to come off a bit, because Sunderland looks destined to finish in fourth place.” To be fair, finishing in their current position would still be a fantastic accomplishment, and they will have support in the playoffs, but it seems like the top two bids are no longer within their grasp.
“That will present an opportunity on Wednesday, and I believe they could learn from SAFC in this regard.”
