Sheffield Wednesday face Blackburn Rovers on Tuesday night in the Championship and HITC pundits give their predictions on the likely outcome.
Sheffield Wednesday 3-0 Blackburn Rovers
Did anyone say routine home win? It is hard to see anything else for the Owls against relegation threatened Rovers. These are two teams battling for different objectives and the different should show here especially if Wednesday can bag an early goal.

Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Blackburn Rovers
The prospect of a Sam Winnall, Jordan Rhodes partnership will have Wednesday’s fellow play-off challengers quaking in their studded Nikes. And a Blackburn side who were fortunate even to get a point at Rotherham will be comfortably swept aside at Hillsborough.

Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Blackburn Rovers
With Leeds having entered something of a mini-wobble, and Norwich’s resurgence putting real pressure on the top six, it is key that Sheffield Wednesday maintain their focus and take maximum points from these kind of games. Blackburn will fight for every ball but the Owls should be too good and too clinical, their improved firepower enough to ensure they win by a couple.
Sheffield Wednesday 3-1 Blackburn Rovers
Wednesday are in good form and should be too strong for Blackburn, with the 3-0 victory against Birmingham last time out filling the Owls with confidence.
Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Blackburn Rovers
Wednesday are one of the strongest teams in the division on current form, and should have more than enough against a struggling Blackburn side. With Jordan Rhodes and Sam Winnall both netting in the win against Birmingham, the Owls look dangerous up top.

Buoyed from their biggest win of the campaign on Friday, Wednesday appear to be finding form at just the right time. Blackburn should be no match for Carlos Carvalhal’s side, although Owls fans will recall their side’s struggles against similarly low-placed opponents last term. You have to fancy a goal for Jordan Rhodes, too, against his former employers.
