Sheffield Wednesday form

Sheffield Wednesday are looking to continue their surprising ascent towards Championship safety under the management of Danny Rohl as they head into the weekend. Despite a poor start to the season, they managed to secure 16 points in a nine-match span between late November and the beginning of the new year, bringing them closer to securing their place in the league. After a brief setback, they bounced back with a 2-0 win against Birmingham City thanks to Ike Ugbo's two goals. Despite a loss to Leicester City, they were able to win a crucial match against Millwall with goals from Ugbo and Anthony Musaba, bringing them closer to safety. With just 13 league games left to play, they are now only four points behind Millwall and will look to gain more ground by securing another win at the weekend.

Sheffield Wednesday Predicted Lineup

Beadle; Valentin, Palmer, Ihiekwe, Bernard, Johnson; Poveda, Bannan, Vaulks, Musaba; Ugbo

Bristol City form

Bristol City, managed by Liam Manning, are hoping to revive their slim chances of making the Championship playoffs this weekend following a recent setback. Despite sitting 12th in the league with 44 points from 33 games under Manning's leadership, they are still within reach of the top six after key wins over Middlesbrough and Southampton. However, their hopes were dampened by a loss to Queens Park Rangers last weekend, pushing them further away from playoff contention. With 13 games left in the season, Bristol City will need to string together a series of victories to have any hope of securing a playoff spot, starting with a match against Hillsborough this Saturday.

O'Leary; McCrorie, Dickie, Vyner, Roberts; James, Williams; Twine, Knight, Bell; Conway
