Over 0.5 First Half Goals

Our first Forest Green vs Sheff Wed prediction is for the game to have at least 1 first-half goal. There had been such an outcome in all of Forest Green’s last 6 league games. Also, Wednesday scored in the first half in all of their last 4 away matches.

Half With Most Goals – First

In fact, we predict that the majority of the action will be in the first half and our next Forest Green vs Sheff Wed prediction is for the first half to produce more goals. So far, 56% of Forest green’s home games had more goals in the first half. Now the Green Devils host 1 of the only 3 teams in the division to be scoring most of their goals in the first half – Wednesday have scored 51.6% of their goals so far before the break. In fact, the Owls are the fastest starting team with 25 goals inside the opening 30 minutes.

Gregory to Score Anytime

Our final Forest Green vs Sheff Wed prediction backs Wednesday’s in-form striker Gregory to score against the boom-dwellers, who on top of everything else will be missing 2 key defenders due to suspensions.

Gregory has scored 4 goals in just the last 6 rounds, he scored 2 just last weekend. Now he will be up against a crippled defensive line that has also failed to produce a clean sheet in 17 consecutive matches. Gregory has a guaranteed starting spot too as Wednesday’s top scorer Windass is currently out injured.

Forest Green vs Sheff Wed Lineups and Team News

Forest Green

Forest Green expectedly lost 0-2 on their visit to the other top 2 side Plymouth. This extended the winless run to 16 and survival is simply no longer a possibility for the Green Devils who are hopelessly adrift from everyone else.

The manager already started trusting some youngsters as he starts to think about what squad he will have next season in the lower division. This trend is likely to continue. The squad is badly crippled anyway. The main wing-back O’Keeffe and starting centre0back Casey are both missing suspended. Star playmaker Stevenson is out injured. To add to that, another defender Moore-Taylor is a fitness doubt after 3 months of absence.

Sheff Wed

Wednesday saw their 23-game unbeaten run in the league come to an end on Saturday when a 2-4 defeat was suffered against Barnsley. Came back from 0-2 down to a draw but then conceded 2 very late goals and finally tasted a defeat.

The team’s joint top scorer Windass, Byers and Ihiekwe are among the 6 sidelined players. Wednesday have impressive depth though and the selection choices remain rich.
