Sheffield Wednesday vs Morecambe prediction, preview, team news and more | League One 2021-22

The EFL League One continues with a fresh set of fixtures as Sheffield Wednesday welcome Morecambe to Hillsborough Stadium on Tuesday.

This will be the second meeting between the sides after Morecambe claimed a 1-0 victory back in August’s reverse fixture.

Sheffield Wednesday returned to winning ways last Saturday when they saw off Ipswich Town 1-0 on home turf.

Darren Moore’s men now head into Tuesday’s game unbeaten in all but one of their last 11 home games, claiming six wins and four draws in that time.

With 43 points from 27 games, Sheffield Wednesday are currently eighth in the EFL League One table, six points off the promotion playoff places.

Meanwhile, Morecambe failed to move clear off the relegation places last time out as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Accrington Stanley.

This followed a 3-2 win over Wycombe Wanderers which saw their three-game winless run come to an end.

With 28 points from 28 games, Morecambe are currently 21st on the log, one point below AFC Wimbledon just outside the relegation places.
