Will Dave Challinor get Sheffield Wed promoted this season?
Open poll and resultsSheffield Wednesday vs Plymouth prediction
Sheffield Wednesday head into this game having made a notable coaching change on the back of a four-match winless run in League One, leaving them outside the play-off places and two points adrift of Reading in sixth. Serial promotion winner Dave Challinor has joined the club after a hugely successful spell at Stockport County, where he took the Hatters out of non-league and into the League One play-offs.
Wednesday will be hoping he's the man to return them to the Championship, but right now all that matters is three points at the weekend. Fifth-placed Plymouth represent stiff opposition, especially as they're one of the teams the Owls will most likely need to pass to win promotion this season.
When Sheffield Wednesday are at their best, no team in the league can cope with them. They boast a stacked squad with excellent depth, and it shouldn't take long for a coach of Challinor's quality to unlock their potential. Factor in what will likely be a raucous home crowd, and it's worth backing Wednesday to get off to a winning start under their new head coach.
