Jury Out On Rooney

There were a lot of eyebrows raised when he was appointed their manager after his poor spell at Birmingham City, who found themselves going from promotion challengers to relegation contenders. 

Plymouth dropped away last season after they made a promising start to life in the Championship, and they could have gone down if it wasn’t for a 1-0 win against Hull on the final day of the season.

Will He Or Won’t He?

Their form in pre-season going into this campaign has been mixed, and their star striker, Morgan Whittaker, could be on the verge of going to Rangers, so he might not even play a part in this game.

Rohl Renaissance

Therefore, I have to side with Sheffield Wednesday. For a lot of last season, it looked like they were going to get relegated, but Danny Rohl managed to turn their fortunes around, and they won their last three games of the campaign, keeping a clean sheet in two of them.

I expect The Owls to kick on this season, and I can see them beating Plymouth comfortably while not conceding, which is currently 9/4 with Rhino.

Selection: Sheffield Wednesday To Win To Nil (9/4)
