Sheffield Wednesday hosts Swansea City in round 38 of the English Championship. The match will be played on Tuesday, April 13th at Hillsborough (Sheffield)
It seems that the Owls will not be able to enjoy the terrible shame of their neighbors from the Premier League. Yes, they do not have such bad statistics as Sheffield United in the elite, but the prospects for relegation are quite clear. There was even a streak of seven defeats in a row. The results slightly improved only in March, after Darren Moore became a coach (and not immediately.) Sheffield Wednesday first interrupted the streak of defeats with a draw on the field of Huddersfield. Then the Owls beat Barnsley away and hammered Cardiff with a 5-0 score. Even Watford, which is one of the leaders, had a very difficult time in the match versus Sheffield Wednesday, and everything was decided by a single own goal. But last weekend QPR won emphatically easily (4-1). And who cares that the score was equal until the 50th minute?

Swansea City was considered a strong middle peasant in the English Premier League, although this team represents Wales. But having dropped to the Championship, the club made several unsuccessful attempts to return. In the previous season, the Swans took 6th place but failed in the playoffs. This time the men of Steve Cooper counted on one of the first places and a direct promotion, but they slowed down abruptly at the most crucial moment. The Welsh club, which earned 10 out of 12 possible points in the first half of March, showed a long streak of defeats after that. And the Swans even didn’t manage to score (0-3 against Bournemouth and 0-1 against Cardiff, Birmingham, and Preston). Luckily, then they faced unmotivated Millwall and scored three unanswered goals away.
In total, the clubs played 11 head-to-head matches, and the visitors won only once (Swansea did it back in 2009). In the current championship, the teams shared points in Wales, and the Swans won back in the second half after the accurate shot from Ayew. Swansea gives its fans hope that it has finally overcome the recession, and the match against one of the outsiders is a good opportunity to score three points. But we recommend betting on the visitors’ victory with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Swansea to win with 0.0 handicap
