Current streaks

Recent form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent form has been mixed, with a concerning defensive record standing out. The Owls have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six matches, conceding a worrying 2.33 goals per game on average. Their matches have been high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their recent games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Despite their defensive struggles, Wednesday have shown resilience, managing to draw three of their last six matches, including a thrilling 3-3 draw with Middlesbrough. Their most impressive result came in a 4-2 victory over Derby County on New Year's Day, highlighting their attacking potential. However, their most recent outing resulted in a heavy 3-0 defeat to Leeds United, indicating there's still work to be done as they sit 10th in the Championship table.

Bristol City

Bristol City have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with their last six games yielding three wins, one draw, and two losses. The Robins enjoyed a three-match winning streak in the Championship, which included a convincing 3-0 victory over Portsmouth, before suffering back-to-back defeats in their most recent outings. Despite their ninth-place position in the league, City have demonstrated defensive solidity, keeping three clean sheets and conceding an average of just 0.83 goals per game over this period. Their attacking output has been steady, with 1.33 goals scored per game, although the team have struggled to find the net in their last two matches. Interestingly, there's an even split between high and low-scoring encounters, with 50% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday have shown resilience at home, remaining unbeaten in their last three matches at Hillsborough. The Owls have displayed improved attacking form, netting eight goals in their previous three home fixtures, including a high-scoring 4-2 victory over Derby County. Despite this offensive upturn, they've struggled to keep clean sheets, managing only one in their last six home games. The team's ability to avoid defeat is evident, with three draws in this period, suggesting they're difficult to beat on their own turf. However, their tendency to share the spoils has potentially hindered their climb up the Championship table, as they currently sit in 10th position. The recent home form indicates a team that's competitive but perhaps lacking the consistency to push for a higher league position.

Bristol City

Bristol City have been struggling away from home, failing to secure a win in their last six away fixtures. The Robins are currently on a concerning run of three consecutive away defeats, with their last away point coming in a 1-1 draw against Sunderland on 10th December. Their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded 10 goals in these six matches while only managing to score 3, resulting in a disappointing goals difference of -7. The team have been particularly goal-shy, averaging just 0.5 goals per game on their travels. Their heaviest away defeat came against Portsmouth, where they suffered a 3-0 loss. Despite their current 9th position in the league, Bristol City's away form is a cause for concern, with two-thirds of their recent away matches featuring under 2.5 goals, suggesting a lack of attacking potency on the road.
