Southampton - Sheffield Wednesday predictions

It’s quite easy to predict that Southampton will take the 3 points here. Though a different result is not entirely impossible, it would still be quite a notable upset.

If betting odds are anything to go on – and they are - Sheffield Wednesday will likely get overrun by their opponents with little hope of winning. Considering how one-sided this matchup is, they may want to cut their losses and focus their energy elsewhere.

We last saw Southampton play against Norwich City in a hard-fought away game. Championship betting odds were quite optimistic about their chances despite the home-field disadvantage, but neither side managed to convincingly pull ahead for the duration of the match.

The The Owls team proceed to be in great form in their previous Championship match. Although they had the advantage of playing at home, they were still considered the clear underdogs even as the first half ended in a stalemate. Thanks to several successive goals in the second half, however, they emerged as the victors with a solid 3:1 goal difference.

A quick look at the recent trends reveals a solid record for Southampton, who have managed to score 5 times in their previous 3 matches. This means that markets like BTTS or Over 5 Goals are worth your attention.

The Owls have registered 6 goals in their three previous home games, which is impressive by any measure. Although they’ll be playing as visitors on Saturday, it’s still a very good idea to look at Over markets.

It will be interesting to see if Sheffield Wednesday manage to beat this odds in this, the second clash with Southampton this season. The first time around they lost with to a 1-point difference.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Saturday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.83 if you use the Betfair sportsbook.
