Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-2
Sheffield Wednesday
Millwall will be aiming to make amends for the EFL Cup loss to Leyton Orient when they take on Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship round 4. The Lions are determined to record their first win of the process and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Owls this weekend. Both Billy Mitchell and Zian Flemming remain on the sidelines with injuries, while both Casper De Norre and Romain Esse return to the starting XI after the duo came off the bench in the EFL Cup defeat.
Sheffield Wednesday, on the other hand, kicked off the new Championship campaign in style, with the team crushing Plymouth 4-0, but they head into Saturday’s clash following back-to-back losses to Sunderland (0-4) and Leeds United (0-2). As the Owls faced a tough fixture list in late August, we predict that they are going to return to winning ways on Matchday 4. Their display in a 5-1 EFL Cup win over Grimsby surely goes in favour of our earlier prediction.
