Prediction: 1-0
Luton
Sheffield Wednesday will be aiming to build on a 2-0 win over Queens Park Rangers when they take on Luton Town in the Championship round 30. The Owls have regained a much-needed confidence, but they need to keep on improving their game if they are to make it to the playoffs. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, experienced forward Michael Smith could sneak into the starting XI after scoring as a substitute against QPR.
The Hatters, on the other hand, suffered yet another dip in form, with the team losing four of their last five league matches. As Luton are on a twelve-game losing run on the road in all competitions, home win should definitely be considered. Elijah Adebayo is widely expected to return to Luton Town’s starting XI, while the likes of Baptiste, Burke, Chong, Lockyer, and Mengi remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Josh Windass):
Born in Hull, England on January 9, 1994, John Windass is a professional footballer who plays for Wigan Athletic. Windass is a product of Huddersfield Town youth academy, but he did not play for the Terriers at senior level.
The 175-cm-tall midfielder began his senior career at Accrington Stanley and after scoring 22 goals in 77 appearances in the league for the club, he moved to Glasgow Rangers in the summer of 2016. Two years later Josh Windass joined Wigan Athletic and he has been playing for the DW Stadium outfit ever since. He scored his first Championship goal on September 18, 2018 in a 2-1 win over Hull City.
His main position is attacking midfield, but he is used as both central midfielder and second striker as well. It has to be noted that Josh is the son of former footballer Dean Windass, who played for the likes of Hull City, Middlesbrough, Sheffield United and Bradford City during his professional career.
