Preston vs Sheffield Wednesday Match Preview
Preston secured their second victory of the season in midweek with a 3-1 home success over Stoke their second of the season. It means they have six points from four games while Daniel Johnson has two goals in his last two.
At Deepdale, the Lilywhites have won both this season and if you stretch it over last season have won three and drawn one of their last four. The two they have played at their own place this season have seen a combined seven goals six of which North-End have netted.
Sheffield Wednesday continued their strong start to the season under caretaker Lee Bullen with a 1-0 defeat of Luton in midweek. It was their third of the campaign (the others coming against Barnsley and Reading) while their sole defeat came to Millwall.
Away from Hillsborough, the Owls have won one and lost one but if extended into last season have won just one of their last six. Three of their last four on the road have gone over 2.5 goals and seen both teams net.
These two sides are probably of a similar level and with home advantage factored into the odds the prices on the match market look about right. The value though is in taking the game to have goals as these are two of the top six goalscorers in the division. Over 2.5 goals is the surprise outsider of two while over 3.5 goals also appeals.
