This week, the English Championship games are going to be played on Friday. One of the matches is going to be between Sheffield United and Wigan. After 38 games, Sheffield has 22 wins, 7 draws, 9 losses, a total of 73 points and 2nd place while Wigan has 8 wins, 13 draws, 18 losses, a total of 34 points and 24th or last place. In this game, I'm predicting that Sheffield is going to win.

Sheffield returned to the pitch very well because they were able to beat Norwich on the road (1:0) despite being underdogs. In the last 6 Championship games, the team has 4 wins. Sheffield has played very well at home where they have 9 wins in the last 11 games in all tournaments. Overall this season, Sheffield has 11 wins and 3 draws in 18 home games, with a total of 35 goals scored and 17 conceded. Per xG, Sheffield is expected to score 2.21 goals at home (the best) and concede 1.10 (4th best).

Wigan hasn't lost the last 3 games. On the 1st day of April, the team beat QPR and had drawn against Watford and Coventry prior to that. Two out of these 3 games were at home while on the road they have just 1 draw and 3 losses in the last 4 games. Wigan isn't the best road team with 4 wins and 7 draws in 19 total games, with a total of 19 goals scored and 27 conceded. Per xG, Wigan is expected to score 1.07 on the road (7th worst) and concede 1.63 (5th worst).

There are no injured players on Sheffield's roster while Wigan could be without Oli McBurnie who couldn't finish last week's game. The 1st meeting of the season ended with a Sheffield win (2:1), and the team has been better in the last 3 meetings overall. At this point of the season, there's a big difference between teams. Sheffield can't feel safe about their 2nd position and promotion and that's why they need to get 3 points.

38场比赛过后，谢菲尔德22胜7平9负，积73分，排名积分榜第2;维甘8胜13平18负，积34分，排名第24位，垫底。在这场比赛中，我预测谢菲尔德队会赢。

谢菲尔德很好地回到了球场，因为他们能够在客场击败诺维奇(1:0)，尽管他们处于劣势。在过去的6场英冠比赛中，这支球队赢了4场。谢菲尔德在主场打得非常好，他们在过去的11场比赛中取得了9场胜利。本赛季，谢菲尔德在18个主场比赛中取得11胜3平的成绩，共进35球失17球。根据xG，谢菲尔德预计在主场进2.21球(最好的)，丢1.10球(第四好)。

维甘最近3场比赛没有输过。在4月1日，球队击败了QPR，并在此之前与沃特福德和考文垂打平。这3场比赛中有2场是在主场，而在过去4场比赛中他们只有1平3负。维冈在19场比赛中4胜7平，进19球丢27球，并不是最好的客场球队。根据xG，维冈预计在客场得分1.07分(倒数第七)，丢球1.63分(倒数第五)。

谢菲尔德的名单上没有受伤的球员，而维甘可能没有奥利·麦克伯尼，他没有完成上周的比赛。本赛季的第一次交锋以谢菲尔德2:1的比分结束，球队在最近3次交锋中整体表现更好。在赛季的这个阶段，球队之间有很大的不同。谢菲尔德对他们的第二名和升级没有安全感，这就是为什么他们需要得到3分。
