Analysis Sheff Wed

The home team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 25 points won, after 7 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Hull City, by (0‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Derby County, by (1‑2). This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. In the last 9 home league matches Sheff Wed has a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 27 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 8 of the last 9 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Sheffield Wednesday go into this match motivated after a 1-2 win at Derby County: the team's goals were scored by Barry Bannan and Jamal Lowe. The home side usually play in a 3-4-3 tactical system, giving more importance to a style of play of constant transitions, practicing soccer that also favors spectacle. It should be noted that, in this design, the three men who will play a more attacking role are likely to be Josh Windass, Djeidi Gassama and Michael Smith. When they do go on the offensive, they usually do so through the right flank, taking advantage of the depth offered by Yan Valery. Olaf Kobacki and Akin Famewo are out of the game with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: James Beadle, Yan Valery, Di'Shon Bernard, Liam Palmer, Max Lowe, S. Charles, Marvin Johnson, Josh Windass, Djeidi Gassama, Michael Smith, Ike Ugbo.
Coach: D. Moore.

In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Stoke City, by (0‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against West Bromwich Albion, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 17 conceded.

Preston North End go into this game on the back of a one-all draw against West Bromwich Albion: Emil Riis scored the team's only goal. The visiting team uses a 4-3-3 tactical formation and is known for its fast transitions, especially down the flanks. The three strikers, Sam Greenwood, Josh Bowler and Emil Riis, are mainly responsible for creating danger for the opposing defenses. When they go on the attack, they usually do so through the right flank, taking advantage of the depth provided by Jordan Storey. Ched Evans and Robert Brady are out for this game, both with physical problems.
