Bristol City face Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night in the Championship, and HITC pundits give their predictions on the likely outcome.
Bristol City 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday
It has not been a good month for Bristol City, who are in free fall at the moment, and the visit of play-off chasing Sheffield Wednesday will not ease their troubles. Expect them to put up a fight, but the Owls will win.

Bristol City 1-3 Sheffield Wednesday
Wednesday could feel the benefit of a free schedule at the weekend away at a Bristol City side in free fall. Sam Winnall has enjoyed a lively start to his Owls career and he could open his account here.

Bristol City 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday
Bristol City are on a truly dreadful run of form, but remain one place above the relegation zone. They desperately need a win and quick, but Sheffield Wednesday are equally in need of points for their battle at the top of the division, and should have a bit too much quality for the Robins. A narrow away win.
Bristol City 0-1 Sheffield Wednesday
Bristol City are just two points above the relegation zone and they may suffer more disappointment when the Owls visit later this week. Sheffield Wednesday are scrapping for the last play-off spot as things stand and a narrow away win looks on the cards.
Bristol City 1-3 Sheffield Wednesday
Wednesday very much look like they can repeat their playoff challenge from last season, and will be heavy favourites against the Robins, who have been on a terrible run.

Bristol City 1-1 Sheffield Wednesday
Wednesday must win to re-open the cushion they once had over seventh-place (down to just a point after Barnsley’s win) and a trip to the league’s fourth-worst side seems like a given. The Owls tend too struggle against the lesser sides, however, and were hammered 4-1 at Ashton Gate last term.
