Sheffield Wednesday will host Queens Park Rangers at the Hillsborough Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2025-26 EFL Championship campaign. The hosts will be keen to build on their last result and finally get going after a poor start to the season.
Sheffield were hardly the better side but managed to get a much-needed 2-0 win over Portsmouth last weekend to mark their first win of the new season after losing four of their opening five games. The Owls earned a comfortable mid-table finish last season but now sit in second-to-last place, having struggled to get results this season and will be hoping to build momentum from last Saturday's win.
QPR also started the season poorly with two losses and a draw from their opening three games, but have since turned things around, winning each of their last three league games. The visitors earned a narrow 1-0 victory over Stoke City last time out thanks to a Harvey Vale winner and will be in high spirits when they make the trip to Sheffield this weekend.
