Sheffield Wednesday picked up an impressive 2-1 victory away to promotion-chasing Bournemouth.

That victory massively aided their survival hopes, although they are still in the bottom three. Sheffield Wednesday are three points from safety and with a game in hand.

Millwall vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction

Sheffield Wednesday have turned a corner since the temporary appointment of Neil Thompson in December. Since then, the Owls have won four of their five league games to boost their survival hopes.

It's #TimeToTalk Day! It's important we all look out for each other during lockdown. We send our best wishes to all of our supporters. 🦉Wednesdayites, keep your phones close today, as some of you may receive a surprise call...👀#swfc pic.twitter.com/EPdksrehTx

Their good run could continue against a Millwall side who have been inconsistent in recent weeks. The hosts' defensive nous suggests a low-scoring game.

We expect a repeat of the scoreline from the reverse fixture.

Prediction: Millwall 0-0 Sheffield Wednesday
