Burnley vs Sheffield Wednesday Predictions

• No more than two goals have been scored in 13 of Burnley’s last 16 matches
• Burnley have kept 11 consecutive clean sheets in the Championship
• The Clarets are unbeaten in their last 22 matches

More to come from watertight Clarets

Burnley are on a stunning run of form and, if it wasn’t for the form of rivals Leeds and Sheffield United, they would almost home and hosed in the Championship promotion race.

However, they start this round of matches in third but they can keep the pressure on the two above them with another typically-tight victory.

The Clarets are unbeaten in 22 matches and they have kept 11 consecutive clean sheets in the league.

That’s a stunning defensive record and it is by far the best in European football at the moment. We predict another low-scoring victory for Scott Parker’s side and 1-0 looks the best option for correct score punters.

It was 2-0 to Burnley when they played Sheffield Wednesday earlier this season, and it is hard to see the Owls hunting them down once more.

Wednesday haven’t scored more than one goal in any of their last seven meetings with the Lancashire outfit and they could face further frustration this Friday.

Danny Rohl’s haven’t been shut out for six matches but their last blank came against leaders Leeds United, and another of the top dogs, Burnley, could keep them muzzled again this Friday.
