Prediction: 2-1
Sheffield Wednesday
Buoyed by impressive back-to-back wins over QPR and Burton Albion, Hull City take on out-of-form Sheffield Wednesday at their KCOM Stadium. The Tigers have been scoring goals for fun in the Championship of late, but they certainly want to give fans yet another reason for celebration. Nigel Adkins' men are likely to stick to their attacking style of play against Sheffield Wednesday and seeing that the Owls head into Saturday's football game following back-to-back defeats to the likes of Fulham and Queens Park Rangers, we predict the hosts are going to extend their winning run in the English second tier. Hull City are a real force to be reckoned with at home and you should bear in mind that they suffered only one defeat in previous 11 home games in the Championship. A man to watch in the home team will be Kamil Grosicki, who scored a brace in the 5-0 crushing of Burton Albion.
