Sheffield Wednesday will host Norwich City at the Hillsborough Stadium on Wednesday in another round of the 2025-26 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have endured a turbulent campaign both on and off the pitch this season and face almost certain relegation, as they sit rock bottom of the Championship with -5 points after being docked 12 points by the EFL due to financial troubles.
They picked up a good point in their goalless draw with West Bromwich Albion last time out and will hope to build on that when they return to home turf this week.
Norwich City have endured a woeful season, with pressure now mounting on head coach Liam Manning just months into his reign at Carrow Road. They suffered a 2-0 defeat to Hull City on Saturday, conceding twice in the second half to record their first home loss to the Tigers since 2010.
Trending
The visitors have picked up just eight points from 13 games this season and sit second-from-bottom in the table. They will hope they can pick up maximum points against another struggling outfit this week to perhaps kickstart their season.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Norwich City Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- There have been 63 meetings between the two teams. Wednesday hold the upper hand in this fixture with 26 wins to Norwich's 20 while their other 17 contests have ended in draws.
- The home side have won their last two games in this fixture after going winless in their previous six.

- Norwich City have won just two league games this season, both of which came on the road.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Norwich City Prediction
The Owls are winless in their last seven outings, with four of those games ending in defeat. They have won just one league game at the Hillsborough Stadium since their 4-2 win over Derby County on New Year's Day and could struggle here.
The Canaries are on a wretched six-game losing streak, scoring just twice in that period. They are the stronger side ahead of the midweek clash but will need to be at their rarely seen best to come away with maximum points on Wednesday.
