It’s a return to EFL Championship action this weekend, so we asked AI to give us its best Leicester City Vs Sheffield Wednesday betting tips for Sunday.
The 12th and final game of this season’s Championship opening round sees relegated Leicester City host a Sheffield Wednesday side in utter turmoil.
Leicester finished 18th in the Premier League in 2024-25, a full 13 points from safety.
The Foxes will be hoping for a much better season as they bid to make it two promotions in three years.
Their opponents on Sunday have been plunged into chaos recently.
Some Sheffield Wednesday fans are calling for a boycott of the Owls’ opening home game against Stoke City.
The situation at Hillsborough could not be much worse, with just 16 senior players at the club.
In terms of expectations for this one, Leicester are firm favourites.
At the time of writing, UK betting sites have them at 1/6, while Wednesday are huge underdogs at 20/1.
Leicester are predicted to challenge for promotion, and are up against a side that is odds-on to finish bottom.
Ahead of the action, we asked AI to give us its best Leicester City Vs Sheffield Wednesday betting tips.

Leicester City Vs Sheffield Wednesday AI Betting Tips
Listed below are the AI’s top Leicester City Vs Sheffield Wednesday betting tips for the weekend.
All three of these picks can be backed ahead of Sunday’s EFL Championship opening round fixture, which kicks off at 16:30 BST.
1. Leicester to Win by 2+ Goals – 7/4
First up, the AI backs Leicester to win by at least two goals.
The gulf in quality between the two sides, plus Wednesday’s recent issues, make this a strong pick.
Most have this down as ending in a heavy home win for Leicester, and the AI thinks the same.
It cites the Foxes attacking firepower and strong home record in the Championship.
2. Patson Daka Anytime Goalscorer – 7/4
Next, the AI model tips Patson Daka as an anytime goal scorer.
The 26-year-old-Zambian has been a potent weapon for Leicester, and is likely to deliver once again.
The AI suggests that once Leicester settle into the game and start to create chances, Daka will be a key target for them.
3. Over 10.5 Total Corners – 11/4
And the third AI tip for Sunday’s game is over 10.5 corners.
The model points out the Leicester average more than five corners per home game, and Wednesday’s struggles mean they will likely be under pressure and conceding set-pieces.
It adds that sustained attacking sequences from Leicester should push the corner count beyond double digits.
