Sheff Wed to Win

League leaders Wednesday made it 5 wins in a row last weekend and also extended their unbeaten run in the league to 22. The Owls also enjoy significant dominance in the H2H and they had been near-perfect in their last 5 matches vs Bolton (W4 D1). At the same time, Bolton have earned a single point from their last 3 games. Due to all that our first Sheff Wed vs Bolton prediction seems to make a lot of sense.

Sheff Wed Clean Sheet

Bolton are on the verge of losing their playoff position due to their lack of goals in recent weeks. The Wanderers have scored just 1 in the last 3 rounds. Now they face the best defence in the division with Wednesday keeping clean sheets in 4 of the last 5 rounds and in 3 of their last 4 home matches. That is why our Sheff Wed vs Bolton prediction is for the Owls to achieve yet another shutdown.

Windass to Score Anytime

Our Sheff Wed vs Bolton prediction ventures into the Goalscoring Market. We back Wednesday’s in-form striker Windass to find the back of the net again. He has been in sensational form so far in 2023 and has scored 4 goals in just the last 4 rounds. His general form since the turn of the year has been great with 9 goals in 13 matches. Also, worth stressing that 8 of these 9 goals were scored in home fixtures.

Sheff Wed vs Bolton Lineups and Team News

Sheff Wed

Wednesday extended their amazing unbeaten league run to 212 last weekend with a hard-fought 1-0 away win vs Portsmouth. This fifth consecutive win didn’t come easy but the Owls once more never looked like conceding or losing the match.

Will have to deal with selection issues in defence for this match as 2 regulars from the back line will be absent. Iorfa misses suspended, while Ihiekwe is sidelined. However, another important defender Johnson served his ban and he is expected to start again now. Byers, a regular midfielder, got hurt in the last match and is a doubt. Wednesday have a huge depth in midfield though so this is not worrying.

Bolton

Bolton remain in the top 6, although their recent form had been poor. Last time around lost 0-2 at home against another team sitting above them Ipswich. The Trotters struggled to create chances all match and they had been underwhelming in attack lately.

Starting wing-back Iredale remains sidelined. However, better news for 2 other regulars – Johnston (centre-back) and Williams (inner midfielder) have resumed training this week and both might be fit enough at least for the bench.
