Burnley has kept a clean sheet in 11 consecutive Championship matches.Sheffield Wednesday has won two of their last three away games.Burnley averages 0.6 goals per game at home, while Sheffield Wednesday averages 1 goal per game away.Sheffield Wednesday has not beaten Burnley in over 10 years.

Burnley

Burnley continues to chase the leaders and is firmly established in the playoff zone. Scott Parker’s side sits in third place, 18 points ahead of seventh-placed Coventry with 13 rounds remaining.

The team looks strong, and at home, they remain unbeaten in the Championship this season. Furthermore, Burnley has conceded only four goals in 16 home matches at Turf Moor.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday had a decent start to the season and has maintained balance throughout. While the team is not considered a favorite to make the playoffs, they still have a chance to finish in the top six.

Currently, they trail West Bromwich by just three points, but it’s unlikely that the Sheffield club will be a serious contender for promotion to the Premier League. Notably, Wednesday performs even better away from home than at Hillsborough.

Prediction

Burnley looks formidable, especially in defense. The team should confidently take all three points against a relatively weaker opponent. My bet is on a home win for Burnley.
