💡 Prediction
It seems to us that Queens Park Rangers and Sheffield Wednesday could both end up scoring in what appears to be a good match-up, with little separating these two teams.
Little in this one, and it’s almost too close to call. We therefore think that it’s going to be a close game with a 1-1 draw at the end of the match.
