Sheffield Wednesday host Blackpool at Hillsborough at 2.00pm (UK time) on Sunday, with the Owls strong on home soil and the visitors in freefall on their travels.
Our Sheffield Wednesday vs Blackpool predictions and betting tips back a home win, with Wednesday ninth in League One and beaten only once at Hillsborough, while Blackpool, 20th, have lost four of their last five. The gap in current form is stark heading into this one.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson leans on Wednesday’s home strength, combining a corners play with a bigger-priced Owls scorer.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Over 10.5 total corners | 20/23 (BoyleSports) | Both sides’ corner numbers sit above this line. Sheffield Wednesday’s League One games have averaged 11.7 corners and Blackpool’s have averaged 12.8, largely because the Seasiders concede 7.6 a game. Wednesday have scored 13 goals in six games at Hillsborough, and Blackpool have lost four of their five away games, so the hosts should spend long spells around the visitors’ box. That pressure should keep the count ticking over, and Over 10.5 total corners at 20/23 with BoyleSports is the safer of the two plays. |
| Callum Slattery to score anytime | 10/3 (Sky Bet) | Callum Slattery has started 11 of Sheffield Wednesday’s 12 League One games and has three goals from an attacking midfield role, joint second behind Jamal Lowe in the Owls’ scoring chart. He started Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with Cambridge United and gets into the box for a side that has scored 13 goals in six home games. Blackpool have conceded nine in five away matches and have not kept a clean sheet on the road all season. At 10/3 with Sky Bet, Slattery is a bigger-priced way into the Wednesday goals than Lowe. |

How Sheffield Wednesday go into the game
Sheffield Wednesday go into the weekend ninth in League One on 19 points, with five wins, four draws and three defeats from 12 games. They were held to a 1-1 home draw by Cambridge United last time out, a third game without a win after defeats at Notts County and Doncaster Rovers.
Hillsborough has been hard to breach, with just one defeat in six there, 13 goals scored and only four conceded. The Owls have been leakier on the road, conceding nine in six away games, but this one is back in front of their own supporters.
How Blackpool go into the game
Blackpool arrive 20th on 11 points, with three wins, two draws and six defeats from 11 games. They were hammered 4-1 at home by Mansfield Town last time out, a result that extended a wretched run to four defeats in five.
The road form is the real worry, one win in five away from home, just four goals scored and nine conceded, with back-to-back blanks at Leyton Orient and Cambridge United. A trip to a strong home side looks a daunting assignment.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Blackpool head-to-head
The clubs have not met in the league in recent years, with their most recent meeting a League Cup tie in September 2024 that Sheffield Wednesday won 1-0 at Blackpool. League history offers little to go on, so current form takes precedence.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Blackpool predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 10.5 total corners | 20/23 (BoyleSports) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Wednesday’s league games have averaged 11.7 corners and Blackpool’s 12.8. |
| Callum Slattery to score anytime | 10/3 (Sky Bet) | ⭐⭐ | Three league goals and 11 starts in 12 games for the Owls. |
| Sheffield Wednesday to win | 3/4 (Coral) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | The Owls have lost once in six at home while Blackpool have lost four of five away. |
| Both teams to score – No | 29/20 (Betfair Sportsbook) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Blackpool have failed to score in each of their last two away games. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 7/5 (Paddy Power) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Wednesday have conceded just four at home and Blackpool are toothless on the road. |
| Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 | 9/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | A comfortable home win to nil fits the gulf in form between these two. |
Sheffield Wednesday vs Blackpool score prediction
Home advantage and the gulf in form point one way. We expect Wednesday to control this from the front and keep a clean sheet against a Blackpool side badly out of sorts away from home. Score prediction: Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Blackpool.
