Sheffield Wednesday Vs Accrington Preview
Dave Challinor didn’t get off to the start he was hoping for as Sheffield Wednesday boss on Sunday night. The newly appointed Owls boss saw his side go down 2-1 to Oldham in the FA Cup first round. However, the former Stockport boss has the chance to put it right on his maiden Hillsborough outing with his charges already through to the knockout stages.
As for Accrington, they need just a point to join the South Yorkshire giants in the next stage. John Doolan’s side go into the game having recently-surrendered their ten-game unbeaten streak. Goals from Connor Taylor and Daniel Harvie gave Wycombe a 2-0 FA Cup win but the Reds are unbeaten in the EFL Trophy.
Sheffield Wednesday Vs Accrington H2H Record
Although the next Man United manager odds market is generating all of this week’s talking points, the overall H2H record between Sheffield Wednesday and Accrington is worth some air time.

- Accrington 4-2 Sheffield Wednesday – Division One – 1892
- Sheffield Wednesday 5-2 Accrington – Division One – 1892
