Opta stats
The Owls have only won one of their last six league games against Leeds (D2 L3) since beating them 6-0 in January 2014.
Leeds haven't won back to back league games at Hillsborough since April 2000, when they won three on the bounce.
This is the fifth league meeting between the teams on a Sunday - Leeds have won all the previous four, in January 1992 (6-1), November 1998 (2-1), April 2000 (3-0) and August 2006 (1-0).
Sheffield Wednesday haven't lost back-to-back league games at Hillsborough since April 2014.
Meanwhile, Leeds have lost their last two away games in the Championship, last losing three in a row on the road back in December 2014.
Leeds have won all six of their league games in which they've scored the first goal this season, but have lost both in which they've conceded first.

So here we go then, a tough game that see's both sides looking to get back to winning ways...........difficult one to predict but i'm going for a hard won 0-2 scoreline with Lasogga and Pontus finding the net

Over To You ...........................put your beer down and get your predictions in ............................................

Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

You lot calling for TC's head need to shake yours. Ridiculous. You should go now, not him.

We don't need a change of coach ffs!! Just need to toughen up in midfield. We have the flair to create chances and score goals but our midfield is too soft and too lethargic. Wieadwald needs words and extra coaching. No comnand of his 6 yard box at all and suspect to high balls.

I think players need to stop being scared of putting challenges in, every team makes challenges that get punished every now & then....

TC has to be given a decent length of time to prove himself. But he would help his case more if he didn't have a misplaced loyalty to players like Phillips who seem guaranteed a start even after failing to perform week after week.

Very true, Lorralorimer.

The new signings have plenty of talent, but the Championship is a brutal league, all about hard running, feistiness and the confidence to have a crack at goal on the fly.

Sorry to keep banging on, but I really thought we were a class above Wednesday before it all went ti7s up after their goal, am I in a minority of one?

If that degree of patience was implemented, we'd have fun and games finding a replacement with an IQ of more than 35.

We were class above above them. It's the uturns in performance that worries me.

You don't win games after twenty minutes.
