Stoke City - Sheffield Wednesday betting tips and odds

Stoke City might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Sheffield Wednesday are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

It would be a minor miracle for Sheffield W. to win at The Potters, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.80 price on most online sportsbooks.

Although Stoke City are coming on the back of a harsh 4:1 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Norwich City , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

Sheffield W. are coming off of a minor success, relatively speaking. They secured a : draw against Swansea City, who were tagged as hard favourites going in, but never managed to pull ahead.

The Potters have been having issues defending lately, though it’s mostly affected their away games for now. They’ve recorded 5 concessions in the past 3 games as visitors.

Looking over the visitors’ record in away games, it seems they don’t do well when they’re out of the comfort of their home field. They’ve recorded a worrying number of conceded goals in their previous 3 away games – more than 5, to be more precise.

At this point, the clash between these two teams is notorious for producing inconclusive results. They already have several tied matches on record in this season alone, which is ultimately worse for the home team who are considered favourites.

Due to a recent string of unfortunate injuries, neither team will be able to play with their full roster. With Stoke City_INJURIES unavailable for the hosts and Sheffield W._INJURIES for the visitors, their respective lineups have been significantly impacted. It will be an interesting game, though any bets made may be somewhat less reliable due to the fact.
