Sheffield Wednesday - Leeds United predictions and free betting tips [08/03/2024]

The 37th round of the Championship kicks off with a game that could shift the scales at both ends of the league table. Sheffield Wednesday welcomes Leeds United at home. Sheffield are finally on the verge of extricating themselves from the relegation zone, while the visitors persist in their quest for direct promotion.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield are bubbling with newfound optimism. After an abysmal streak, they're turning the situation on its head, having triumphed in four rounds on the trot. Danny Rol is proud of the accomplished efforts, but the game against Leeds marks a stern test of his team's ambitions.

Leeds United

Leeds responded well to the points dropped against Huddersfield, securing a narrow victory against Stoke City in the previous round. However, the rock 'n' roll boys from Ipswich have no intention of repeating such mistakes. Justly, Leeds have remained unbeaten in the last 11 championship matches, a fact that should cement their confidence. 

Betting Prediction for Sheffield Wednesday vs Leeds United

The guests' form prompts bookmakers to present low odds on everything associated with Leeds. Therefore, we'll take the opposite route and focus on the total goals for the match. Sheffield feel the momentum, and Ike Ugbo is in terrific form. Leeds also appear dazzling in attack. If only Patrick Bamford could find more precision in front of the goal, Leeds would not have any concerns. In any case, all these factors suggest a game of high scores.

Prediction on Team's Effectiveness

Considering what's been written above, it can also be inferred that both teams should find the net today. Yes, the Leeds' back-line is predominantly solid, but occasional slip-ups do occur. Ike Ugbo has been scoring game after game, so there's no reason he couldn't make his mark today.
