Sheffield Wednesday Vs West Brom: Wednesday Target 2 Straight Home Wins

Sheffield Wednesday Vs West Brom: Wednesday Target 2 Straight Home Wins

Sheffield Wednesday vs West Brom comes into focus with one clean trend: Wednesday have won both of their last two Championship home games against Albion. That run includes a 3-0 win in 2023-24 and a 3-2 victory last season, while West Brom still have the better overall recent league record in the fixture.

Sheffield Wednesday Home Edge

Those two results give Wednesday a clear home pattern against this opponent. The latest win was by three goals in 2023-24, then came the 3-2 result last season, which left West Brom with no points from either trip to Hillsborough in that span.

That sits against a longer run that still leans Albion’s way. West Brom have lost only two of their last 13 league games against Sheffield Wednesday, and their record in that stretch is seven wins and four draws.

West Brom Recent League Record

The reverse meeting this season ended 0-0 in November, a reminder that the matchup has also tightened even with Wednesday’s recent home success. West Brom’s broader league record against them leaves little margin for either side if this one follows the same pattern.

Wednesday’s own final-day record adds another layer. They have not lost their final league game in any of the last five seasons, with three wins and two draws in that run, and their last longer sequence without a final-day defeat stretched from 1947-48 to 1957-58.

Final-Day Pressure

West Brom have won their final league game in both of the last two seasons, and their last three-in-a-row run in that fixture came from 1991-92 to 1993-94. The contrast leaves both clubs with a specific edge to protect, because Wednesday are chasing another clean finish while Albion are trying to keep their recent closing-day run intact.

The stakes sharpen further if Wednesday fail to win. They would become the first side in England’s top four tiers to end the season with one league win since Derby County in 2007-08 in the Premier League, and in a 46-game season the fewest wins is two, by Rochdale in 1973-74 in the third tier. Lineups are already announced and players are warming up.
