It's the opener of the English Championship League season between two teams that have been on the move. Southampton has moved down after a dreadful last-place campaign in the Premier League where the defense allowed 73 goals in 38 matches. The offense has been decent tallying six goals in the last four Club Friendlies but the defense allowed six goals. They've gone OVER 2.5 goals in eight of their last 14, as well as 11 of their last 17 on the road. Newly-promoted Sheffield Wednesday has moved up to the Championship League after a two-year stay in League One. The offense has scored 23 goals in its last 11 home games. Sheffield Wednesday has gone OVER 2.5 goals in 13 of their last 21 overall, including six of 10 at home. Take Sheffield Wednesday/Southampton OVER the total.
