Bristol City vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction

Bristol City recently made the shock decision to part ways with former manager Nigel Pearson. The Robins are yet to make a permanent replacement, with interim manager Curris Flemming taking charge of his first game this weekend.

Sheffield Wednesday are on course for an immediate return to League One after just one season back. The Owls are also plagued by off-field troubles, with financial issues potentially leading to points deduction. However, they registered their first league win of the season last weekend and this could be the spark their campaign needed.

We are backing Bristol City to claim maximum points with a routine victory and clean sheet.
