Recent respective form guides

Sheffield Wednesday's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Owls have scored 11, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Sheffield Wednesday find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 44 points from their 37 matches.

Brentford's 52 points from 38 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position.
