Premium Tips
Two Premium Tips for Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United, with Anthony Eadson expecting the hosts to prevail in an open contest.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Cambridge United to have most corners | 13/10 (Betfred) | Cambridge United have dominated the corner count all season, and 13/10 on them doing so again at Hillsborough looks generous. The U’s average 8.2 corners a game and have won the count in 10 of their 12 League One matches, including by 13 corners to three against Plymouth Argyle on Saturday. Sheffield Wednesday have won it in only two of their five home games, losing nine to eight against Bradford City and five to four against Stockport County, and were out-cornered nine to five at Doncaster Rovers last time out. Betfred’s 13/10 is the price to take. |
| Sheffield Wednesday and both teams to score | 11/4 (bet365) | Backing the hosts to win in a game where both sides score offers value at 11/4. Sheffield Wednesday are strong enough at home to be favourites, having lost just once in five at Hillsborough, but Cambridge United have found the net in every one of their 12 league games this season. The U’s have also been excellent on the road, unbeaten in five away trips, so they should carry a threat even in defeat. With the Owls fancied to edge it and goals likely at both ends, bet365’s 11/4 captures the shape of the game nicely. |

How Sheffield Wednesday go into the game
Sheffield Wednesday sit eighth in League One on 18 points, with five wins, three draws and three defeats from 11 games. They have scored 20 goals, so there is firepower here, even if 12 goals conceded shows the defence can be got at.
The Owls come in off back-to-back 2-0 defeats at Notts County and Doncaster Rovers, so they need a response. At Hillsborough they have been solid enough, with two wins from five, and they will fancy getting back to winning ways against a side they have historically handled well.
How Cambridge United go into the game
Cambridge United arrive sixth in League One on 20 points, with five wins, five draws and two defeats. Their 20 goals scored sit alongside 17 conceded, the profile of an entertaining side that has found the net in every league game so far.
The U’s are far better on their travels, where they are unbeaten in five with two wins and three draws. They do come in off a 3-2 home defeat to Plymouth Argyle, though, so there are goals in their games at both ends heading into this one.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Cambridge United head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 02/01/23 | Sheffield Wednesday | 5-0 | Cambridge United |
| 15/10/22 | Cambridge United | 0-2 | Sheffield Wednesday |

| 19/10/21 | Cambridge United | 1-1 | Sheffield Wednesday |
| 09/08/16 | Cambridge United | 2-1 (aet) | Sheffield Wednesday |
These sides have not met since January 2023, and Sheffield Wednesday are unbeaten in the last four league meetings, winning three. That run includes a 5-0 and a 6-0 win at Hillsborough, although Cambridge United knocked the Owls out of the EFL Cup with a 2-1 extra-time win in August 2016. The games are a few years old now, but the history favours the hosts.
