Sheffield Wednesday vs Swansea Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 30th August 2025

Swansea head over to the Hillsborough on Saturday to face title favourites Sheffield Wednesday in a round 4 match in the Championship.

Sheffield Wednesday have so far amassed only a single point from three matches this season. Following their three encounters Swansea have scraped together four points which hands them a position number 13 in the Championship standings.

Sheffield Wednesday find themselves as number 21 in the league table with one points from their initial three matches this campaign. As number 13, three points above them, Swansea have played three rounds this season.

It is early days yet, anything can happen and both Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea are still highly motivated of getting off to a good start. They both have talented squads, and we expect a cracking affair at Hillsborough as the teams look to get one over each other.

Sheffield Wednesday are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net nine times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.9 goals per game, as they conceded 16 goals. They managed zero clean sheets in these matches.

Swansea are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 13 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.3 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of seven goals, and while Swansea claimed five clean sheets, they conceded an average of 0.7 goals per match.

The last time these two sides facing off here came up against each other, Sheffield Wednesday came away with a 0-1 win. They have a similar outcome in mind at Hillsborough, but face stern opposition, of course.
