Sheffield Wednesday Barnsley betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

A game that is expected to be very closed and with few moves of danger. Both Sheffield Wednesday and Barnsley present attacks with some gaps and in this game they should act in a more cautious way. It should be noted that the two teams are going through difficult moments in these conditions. That said, risking in favor of the "Under 2.5 Goals" market is a good option.

Analysis Sheff Wed

After 3 wins, 6 draws and 8 losses, the home team is in the 24th position, havinf won 9 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against Huddersfield Town by (2‑0), after in the previous match they have lost (2‑1) an away match against Norwich City. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches; against 1 win, 7 draws and 7 losses at their stadium. In the last 8 home league matches Sheffield Wednesday has a record of 1 win, 5 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 24 possible.

They haven’t lost any of the last 4 home matches for this competition. In their home matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑0 (6 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. 7 of their last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 17 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sheffield Wednesday come to this clash unmotivated after a 2-0 loss at Huddersfield, registering the seventh straight game without a win in this second English division. Coach Tony Pulis should opt for 4-3-3, aiming at defensive organization and the exits for the attack also through the flanks. In this tactical formation we highlight Adam Reach and Kadeem Harris and the centralized Callum Paterson, all of whom should occupy the three most advanced positions. The highlight of this squad is on account of Callum Paterson, with 2 goals scored in this championship. For this game, the home team can not count on Liam Shaw, suspended, as well as Aden Flint, Chey Dunkley, Jack Marriott and Keiren Westwood, these injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Joe Wildsmith, Dominic Iorfa, Joost van Aken, Tom Lees, Moses Odubajo, Cheyenne Dunkley, Callum Paterson, Adam Reach, Josh Windass, Kadeem Harris, Barry Bannan.
Coach: D. Moore.
