Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the EFL Championship match.
Both sides were on the verge of relegation last season. They start a new campaign with a head-to-head game and they’re unlikely to play well in the attacking style.
Sheffield Wednesday
The side won the first friendly game in the pre-season matches, against Alfreton Town (2:0). However, Sheffield Wednesday scored only two goals in the next three games. RB Salzburg, for example, easily smashed the Championship side. In July, Sheffield Wednesday signed 7 new players, including Valery. Yet, they still need some time to get used to the team.
Plymouth Argyle
Plymouth Argyle were better in the pre-season games (3 wins in their 5 matches). However, they were focused on defensive style. They beat MK Dons (1:0) in the last game. This is the way they will gain points in the season. Defenders Pálsson and Szűcs are the ones who will do their best right from the start.
Sheffield Wednesday - Plymouth Argyle Prediction
This year, the sides played in March, with Sheffield Wednesday winning 1:0. Both teams are unlikely to score a lot of goals this time.
