Stoke City
Match Time & Date:
26/12/2019
10:00 AM
Prediction: 0-1
Sheffield Wednesday
There will be fireworks when Stoke City and Sheffield Wednesday face each other at bet365 Stadium on Matchday 24. Stoke City recorded only one win in the last six league fixtures, and, as a result, they are sitting in the relegation zone ahead of the Boxing Day clash. The Potters are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful first half of the season, but they will have a big fish to fry against the Owls.
Sheffield Wednesday have been producing splendid displays of late. Following a terrific 4-0 win at Nottingham Forest, the Owls registered a hard-fought 1-0 win over Bristol City in their last league fixture. Wales international Morgan Fox picked up a facial injury against the Robins, and he is rated doubtful for the Stoke City game. Anyhow, we predict that the high-flying visitors are going to extend their winning run in the Championship to three games on Boxing Day.
