Harry Mail
Sheffield Wednesday aim to end the season on a high note, having performed well on the road. This may also be Danny Rohl’s farewell to SWFC fans.
“The Owls are unbeaten in their last two games. Prior to those, they were in poor form, but they appear to have turned things around.
“Watford have not won in their last four games. They’ve also won only once in their last eight matches, so they’re on the beach.
“Both of these teams have nothing to play for right now, so they can play freely.” I can see the visitors taking all three points in the end.”
Prediction: Watford 1–2 Sheffield Wednesday.
Who performs at Elland Road?
James Ray
“Watford and Sheffield Wednesday finish their seasons with nothing to play for.” At both clubs, however, the focus is on what the summer may hold.
“It appears that there is uncertainty ahead at Vicarage Road and Hillsborough. Tom Cleverley’s future has been called into question, and SWFC’s management, ownership, transfers, and finances are unclear.
“Nonetheless, these two will be hoping to finish their turbulent campaigns on a high. I wouldn’t be surprised if both are left wanting, finishing their seasons in mid-table by splitting the spoils in this one.”
