Current streaks

Recent form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six games yielding two wins, one draw, and three losses. Notably, they've struggled in the Championship, currently sitting in 22nd position with only 4 points from 6 games. Their goal-scoring record is modest, averaging 1.33 goals per game, while their defense has been somewhat porous, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game. The standout performance in this period was their impressive 5-1 victory over Grimsby in the League Cup, showcasing their attacking potential. However, they've failed to replicate this form in the league, suffering a heavy 3-0 defeat to Millwall and struggling to keep clean sheets, with only one in their last six matches. The team's total goals average of 2.83 per game suggests their matches have been relatively entertaining, with an even split between high and low-scoring affairs.

West Brom

West Bromwich Albion is currently in excellent form, sitting atop the Championship table with 16 points from 6 games. The team is on an impressive four-game winning streak in the league, which has propelled them to first place. Their defensive record is particularly noteworthy, with 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches and only 0.5 goals conceded per game. While their attacking output is solid at 1.33 goals per game, it's their defensive stability that stands out. The Baggies have shown consistency in their recent performances, with their only loss coming in the League Cup against Fleetwood Town. Their ability to grind out 1-0 victories, as seen in two of their recent wins, demonstrates their resilience and efficiency in managing games.

Recent home/away form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with the team showing resilience but struggling to consistently secure victories. In their last six home games, they've managed two wins, three draws, and one loss, indicating a tendency to avoid defeat but difficulty in claiming all three points. Defensively, they've been solid, keeping three clean sheets and conceding only 0.67 goals per game. The standout performance came in their 4-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle, which was their highest-scoring game in this stretch. However, their overall goal-scoring record of 1.5 goals per game suggests room for improvement in attack. With 67% of their matches featuring under 2.5 goals, Sheffield Wednesday's home games have generally been low-scoring affairs, reflecting their defensive strength but offensive challenges.

West Brom

West Brom's recent away form shows a notable improvement in competitive matches, with three consecutive wins in the Championship, including impressive victories against Portsmouth (3-0), Stoke City (2-1), and Queens Park Rangers (3-1). These results contrast sharply with their earlier friendly losses to Birmingham City (4-1) and Cambridge United (1-0), as well as a League Cup defeat to Fleetwood Town (2-1). The team's goal-scoring ability is evident, netting 3 goals in two of their last three away games. However, their defensive record is mixed, with only one clean sheet in the last six away matches. The high-scoring game against Birmingham City (4-1 loss) stands out, contributing to the fact that 83% of their recent away games have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating exciting, high-scoring encounters for spectators.
