            Sheffield Wednesday vs Leeds Preview, Tips & Stats

            Leeds make the trip to Hillsborough to take on Sheffield Wednesday in the Friday night action in the Championship this weekend. Wednesday look to make the leap out of the relegation zone whereas Leeds aim to reel in Ipswich for the automatic promotion spots.

            Sheffield Wednesday currently sit 23rd in the Championship after 36 games. The Owls have 11 wins, five draws and 20 losses, leaving them on 38 points, 19 points ahead of Rotherham and equal with both Stoke and Huddersfield.

            In their last five games in all competitions, Sheffield Wednesday have four wins and one loss.

            Sheffield Wednesday made the trip to top of the table Leicester, but after goals from Abdul Fatawu and Jamie Vardy in the first half, The Foxes handed Wednesday the 2 - 0 loss. The Owls bounced back the next time out against Millwall. Ike Ugbo and Anthony Musaba both scored for Wednesday, giving them the 2 - 0 win over Millwall, despite Ashley Fletcher being sent off late on.

            It was another win for Sheffield Wednesday, this time against Bristol City. Ugbo opened the scoring for Wednesday but Jason Knight equalised for City. However, Ugbo completed his brace to give The Owls a 2 - 1 win, even with another sending off, this time to Di’Shon Bernard. Ugbo was on the scoresheet yet again for Sheffield Wednesday, scoring the only goal of the game in the 1 - 0 win for The Owls.

            The last time out for Sheffield Wednesday was against Plymouth Argyle. Djeidi Gassama scored the only goal of the game in the 60th minute to give Sheffield Wednesday the 1 - 0 win over Plymouth Argyle.

            Leeds, on the other hand, currently sit third in the Championship. In 36 games, Leeds have 23 wins, seven draws and six losses which leaves them on 76 points, two points from Ipswich in second and five points from top of the league Leicester.

            In their last five games in all competitions, Leeds have three wins, one draw and one loss.

            Wilfried Gnonto opened the scoring for Leeds in the tenth minute and Georginio Rutter added another late on for a 2 - 0 win over Plymouth Argyle. In a big game at the top of the Championship, Leeds hosted Leicester. Wout Faes gave Leicester an early lead, but in a crazy last 15 minutes, goals from Connor Roberts and Patrick Bamford as well as an own goal from Faes gave Leeds the 3 - 1 win.

            In the Fifth Round of the FA Cup, Leeds took on Premier League Chelsea. Mateo Joseph opened the scoring early for Leeds but goals from Nicolas Jackson and Mykhailo Mudryk gave Chelsea the 2 - 1 lead at halftime. Joseph equalised for Leeds but a 90th minute goal from Conor Gallagher gave Chelsea the 3 - 2 win. However, back in the Championship, Leeds slipped up against Huddersfield. Michal Helik gave Huddersfield the lead but late in the first half, Jonathan Hogg was sent off for The Terriers. Bamford did score a goal in the second half but Leeds had to settle for the 1 - 1 draw.

            The most recent outing for Leeds was against Stoke. Daniel James scored the only goal of the game in the first half to give Leeds the 1 - 0 win over a Stoke side that had Ben Pearson sent off late on.

            Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds have met 100 times in their histories, with the first meeting coming back in 1920. Leeds have a better record in the fixture with 39 wins in comparison to Wednesday’s 34 wins, the other 27 games ending in a draw.
