Sheffield Wednesday - Stoke City predictions

Sheffield Wednesday will likely try to secure a draw at most. They are outclassed by Stoke City, plain and simple, and most bookies online agree with this – after all, the betting odds on a home win for this match are 4.12.

Even with the home-field advantage as a factor, The Potters have a better chance of winning this clash than their opponents. They can’t afford to relax just yet though – the hosts may prove a tough nut to crack after all.

Sheffield Wednesday went into their previous Championship match against Leicester City as clear underdogs: they played as visitors at the betting odds of 11.98. As such, the fact that they were in the lead at half-time was quite surprising, even if the final 2:1 loss wasn’t.

The Potters’s latest performance against Derby County can’t be called impressive, but it speaks well fo their form. The first 45 minutes were rather mediocre considering they were seen as slight favourites. However, Stoke City ensured a sound 3:1 victory in the later stages.

Despite the favourable betting odds, Stoke City have a painful defeat on record from the previous time they played against Sheffield W.. Although this match was played last season, the large goal difference left quite a poor impression.

An exciting match is in store as both teams have their full lineups available due to no suspensions or injuries.

The 1.91 on an Away Win are obviously favourable, though it would be presumptuous to say it’s already in the bag. Still, it’s a fairly probable outcome and a good offer to take at William Hill in terms of betting value.
