Sheffield Wednesday host Blackburn Rovers in a clash overshadowed by the Owls’ ongoing financial struggles, which have affected squad depth and morale this season. Therefore, our prediction points toward a 2-0 away win. The Owls come into this game after a 2-2 Boxing Day draw with Hull City, leaving them winless in their last five and averaging just 0.40 points per game overall. Their home form is equally concerning, conceding 2.40 goals per game and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last five outings. Both Fusire and Valery are on international duty, leaving gaps in Blackburn’s lineup.
Blackburn Rovers, on the other hand, head into Monday's clash following a 0-0 draw with Middlesbrough, with midfielder Ryoya Morishita unavailable due to injury. The Riversiders have been far more consistent than their hosts, taking 1.60 points per away game, conceding just 0.80 goals on average, and boasting a 40% clean sheet rate away from Ewood Park.
Considering Sheffield Wednesday’s poor home form and financial issues, Away Win is our main betting tip for this matchup, with additional value on Blackburn to Score First and Blackburn Over 1.5 goals.
This Championship match will be played on Monday 29 December 2025 at 19:45.
