Sheffield Wednesday predicted team vs Blackburn Rovers as one change is made

It’s been another turbulent week for Sheffield Wednesday with another six points deducted from the South Yorkshire-based club.

The Owls were informed by the EFL that they would be stripped of another six points earlier this week, with Wednesday now on -10 at the foot of the Championship.

Wednesday now know the pressure is off in their quest to avoid relegation, with League One football now a certainty for next season.

Ahead of this weekend’s trip to Blackburn Rovers, we’ve looked at how the Owls might be lined up by Henrik Pedersen.

Sheffield Wednesday predicted team vs Blackburn Rovers

The Wednesday rearguard

Ethan Horvath should start between the posts for the Owls, despite Pierce Charles returning from injury earlier this week for the under-21s.

The three-man defence could see one change, with Liam Cooper coming in to play alongside Max Lowe and Dominic Iorfa, who should keep their places in the team.

The Wednesday engine room

Harry Amass and Sean Fusire will likely play as the wing-backs in Pedersen’s team, having now played there for a number of weeks.

Barry Bannan will lead the team once more, with Yan Valery looking to continue his good form alongside him in the engine room.

Leading the Wednesday line

There is a bit of competition for places here now, but Charlie McNeill will play, having scored two goals last week against Preston.

Alongside him, Jamal Lowe feels like the obvious choice, with Svante Ingelsson playing in the number 10 role once more.
