Sheffield Wednesday vs Sheffield United Prediction – Sunday 23rd November 2025

OUR vivacious EFL Championship returns from the international break sojourn offering a delightful selection of fixtures this weekend.

Hectic managerial merry-go-round activity is in full swing bringing a direct bearing on Championship betting odds. And there are two huge local derbies too.

Here are the upcoming pairings I am anticipating most alongside my considered score predictions to guide your football betting…

Sheffield Wednesday v Sheffield United

• Kick-off: 12 noon
• Rankings: 24th versus 22nd (before the weekend)

Sheffield Wednesday preview – Massive interest in the Steel City hinterland for a relegation haunted high noon showdown. Wednesday prop up the table on minus 4 points due to the 12 points deduction imposed by the EFL for going into administration.

It leaves them an insurmountable 17 points to make up in retaining Championship status. The Owls possess one win all season – namely 2-0 at Portsmouth on September 20th.

Sheffield United preview – Three points short of safety positions. Present fortunes comprise three successive defeats and then a scoreless home draw with Queens Park Rangers. The ex-Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford is in line for his debut further to signing on a brief deal until January.

Score prediction: Blades earn joyous bragging rights 2-1.
