On Sunday, Forest Green Rovers will play Sheffield Wednesday at The New Lawn in a League One match. The home side has gotten through a somewhat blistering effort, ending up in the drop zone and quickly using up all available time to save their season. In their most recent match, they were defeated 2-0 by league leaders Plymouth Argyle, and they had only one shot on goal all game.
Sheffield, on the other hand, is looking forward to returning to the English Championship after a two-year absence thanks to their strong performance this season. In their most recent league game, they were defeated by Barnsley by a score of 4-2. Although they might have gotten more out of the encounter, their finishing was poor. With 78 points from 36 games, the visitors are in second place in the league standings. With maximum points on Sunday, they can leapfrog Plymouth at the top of the pile, and they will try to do so.
