Sheffield Wednesday, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 home win over Queens Park Rangers in their last league game, Sheffield Wednesday will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. Their share of possession in that meeting was 49%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Queens Park Rangers, who had 5 shots on goal with 2 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and this season they have failed to score in 11 of their 22 games.
They have put together a nice run of home form recently, managing to go undefeated in 5 matches out of their last 6 at Hillsborough Stadium and recording 3 wins in that same period.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Sheffield Wednesday, Bailey-Tye Cadamarteri will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Cardiff City, Recent FormCardiff City boss Erol Bulut will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 3-0 away mauling from Hull City. In that game they had 43% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Hull City who had 15 attempts and 7 on target.
Having conceded 8 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. Not only have they failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, but they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Cardiff camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points.
With 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Aaron Ramsey has given the travelling Cardiff City support something to shout about on the road.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 2-1 win for Cardiff City.
Goals should be on the cards for Wednesday in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Bluebirds in their last 5 meetings together.
Wednesday manager Danny Röhl has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Mohamed Diaby (Leg), Dominic Iorfa (Leg), Mallik Wilks (Muscle) and Josh Windass (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Erol Bulut has a number of injury concerns in his Cardiff squad to contend with: Perry Ng (Eye), Callum O'Dowda (Leg), Joe Ralls (Knock) and Aaron Ramsey (Knee)
