The EFL Championship match between Sheffield Wednesday vs Plymouth Argyle will take place at Hillsborough on Wednesday at 1:15 am IST.
Sheffield Wednesday will face Plymouth Argyle at home in their quest to avoid relegation from the Championship on Tuesday. They are currently in 23rd place, just three points behind safety, while Plymouth Argyle is in 16th place, five points ahead.
Sheffield Wednesday seemed doomed for relegation after a heavy 4-0 loss to Huddersfield Town last month left them eight points away from safety. However, they’ve turned things around with four wins in their last five matches, giving them renewed hope of avoiding relegation to the third tier. After beating Birmingham City but losing to Leicester City, they went on a three-game winning streak against Millwall, Bristol City, and Rotherham United. In their recent match against Rotherham, they had to wait until the 66th minute for Ike Ugbo to score the winning goal, securing back-to-back away wins without conceding. With just three points separating them from safety, Sheffield Wednesday can’t afford to relax as they prepare to face Plymouth and aim for a third consecutive home win.
Plymouth Argyle, currently in 16th place, is also battling to stay in the Championship, with only two points separating them from Stoke City in 22nd position. After ending a winless streak with a 2-0 victory over Middlesbrough, they suffered a defeat to Ipswich Town. They’ve struggled at home lately, losing three consecutive matches without scoring a goal. However, Plymouth has won two of their last three away games and hopes to secure their second consecutive away win this season. They aim to achieve a league double over Sheffield Wednesday, following their 3-0 victory in the reverse fixture in October.
Sheffield Wednesday probable starting lineup: Beadle, Valentin, Palmer, Ihiekwe, Bernard, Johnson, Poveda, Bannan, Vaulks, Musaba, Ugbo
Plymouth Argyle probable starting lineup: Hazard, Pleguezuelo, Gibson, Galloway, Sorinola, Randell, Gyabi, Miller, Whittaker, Devine, Hardie
