Expect a thrilling atmosphere at legendary Hillsborough when Sheffield Wednesday play host to Wigan Athletic in League One round 6. The Owls have found their form, winning each of their last three league games and scoring 1.70 goals per match across their last 10. They proved their worth with a 2-1 victory over Peterborough at the weekend and have won 60% of their last 10 home fixtures. Liam Cooper and Yan Valery are both doubtful for the hosts.
Wigan, meanwhile, need a reaction after suffering a heavy 4-0 defeat to Stockport at the weekend. The Latics have won just 20% of their last 10 matches and have struggled badly on the road, winning none while scoring only 0.60 goals per game. Sze, Murray and Burrowes are all pushing for starts as changes are expected following the disappointing display. Wigan have also failed to score in 60% of their last 10 games.
As Sheffield Wednesday have found their best form of late, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Sheffield Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (Wednesday’s home games average 3.20 goals).
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 12 September 2026 at 15:00.
