Sheffield Wednesday vs Wrexham takes place at Hillsborough with both teams keen to improve their league standings. Wrexham comes into this match with a strong recent form, winning 3 of their last 5 fixtures and scoring frequently, while Sheffield Wednesday have struggled with only 1 victory in their last 5 matches and have conceded 19 goals during that period. The injury news slightly favors Wrexham, as several key Sheffield Wednesday players are questionable or missing. This sets up an interesting clash with Wrexham likely to look to maximize their attacking potential.
Sheffield Wednesday face potential lineup issues with question marks over G. Brown and P. Charles due to injuries. N. Chalobah and I. Ugbo are out, which impacts their attacking options. Wrexham’s L. Brunt is unavailable due to a thigh injury, and R. Hardie and A. James are missing through knee injuries. Both teams could field somewhat weakened sides, but Wrexham's squad depth appears slightly better suited for this fixture.
If Wrexham scores first against Sheffield Wednesday on January 31, the match could open up with Sheffield Wednesday needing to chase the game, potentially becoming more open and creating scoring chances for Wrexham. If it's level at halftime, Sheffield Wednesday may adopt a more aggressive approach in the second half, but Wrexham's recent form suggests they remain a threat. A late goal for Wrexham or Sheffield Wednesday might occur based on historical comeback patterns, but Wrexham's current momentum and form give them a strong chance to secure at least a draw.
