Recent respective form guides
Brighton & Hove Albion need to improve on their recent home record of just 3 draws from the previous six. Seagulls have conceded a disappointing 6 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 2 of their own chances.
Sheff. Wed.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the The Owls have hit 5 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Brighton & HA are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca Cola Championship with a return of just 38 points from their 43 games thus far. Sheff. Wed. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 45 points from 43 matches.
