Sheffield Wednesday, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 0-0 draw against Leeds United will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Sheffield Wednesday. During that encounter they had 33% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 16 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Sheffield Wednesday, Michael Smith will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Ipswich Town, Recent FormIpswich Town head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-2 home win against Cardiff City in their last league encounter. In that game they had 55% possession and managed 19 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Cardiff City who had 13 attempts and 5 on target.
Manager Kieran McKenna will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 9 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 20 games in a row, and they've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 games away from home.
They have not lost away from home for an impressive 11 games in a row.
With 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Conor Chaplin has given the travelling Ipswich Town support something to shout about on the road.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Wednesday will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 18 encounters with The Tractor Boys.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Ipswich will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 6 games.
Wednesday manager Xisco Muñoz has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Mohamed Diaby (Leg), Mallik Wilks (Muscle) and Josh Windass (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Kieran McKenna has a number of injury concerns in his Ipswich squad to contend with: Janoi Donacien (Groin), Christian Walton (Ankle) and Brandon Williams (Unknown)
