Our prediction for this Championship match:
Hillsborough will host Wednesday’s football game between Sheffield Wednesday and Leicester City, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Owls are stuck at the bottom with only six points on their account and they must be low on confidence following a 2-1 defeat to Birmingham. Josh Windass serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while fellow midfielder Mohamed Diaby is sidelined with injury.
The Foxes, on the other hand, proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Watford, with substitute Jamie Vardy scoring a brace. The veteran is widely expected to return to the starting XI and we predict that he will lead Leicester to their 15th triumph of the season. Midfielder Callum Doyle is sidelined with a knee injury, but he should be the only absentee in the away team this time out.
Highlighted Player (Reece James):
Reece James is a talented Chelsea defender who plays for Wigan Athletic on loan.

The talented teenager played for England U18 and U19 teams and he currently represents the U20 team on the international stage.
Reece James scored 3 goals in 45 appearances for Wigan in the 2018/2019 Championship campaign, but that did not help the Latics avoid relegation to the League One.

James, on the other hand, has yet to find the net for the England U20 national team. His main position is right back, but he is capable of playing as both centre-back and defensive midfielder as well. Reece James turned professional in March 2017.
