Plymouth
  • Expect Sheffield Wednesday to line up in a 4-2-3-1 system on the opening day with space in the starting XI for new additions Max Lowe, Olaf Kobacki, Svante Ingelsson and Jamal Lowe.
  • Goalkeeper Ben Hamer is Danny Röhl's only injury concern heading into his side's first league game of the season.
  • Wayne Rooney will trial a 3-4-2-1 formation at the start of the season with new additions Victor Palsson, Ibrahim Cissoko and Muhamed Tijani all finding a role in the starting line-up.

Prediction

  • Danny Röhl's stock is at an all-time high heading into the 2024/25 season after he guided Sheffield Wednesday to a miraculous survival last term. The Owls looked doomed when he took over but stayed up on the final day following a commanding win against Sunderland. With some smart summer additions and a steadier ship, the hosts should avoid similar stresses this time around.
  • Plymouth stumbled across the line without a permanent manager at the helm last season, but their fate will be deemed a success given pre-season expectations after winning League One. Wayne Rooney takes charge for the 2024/25 campaign. He arrived to mixed reception, but with some exciting new signings in the mix and Morgan Whittaker still at the club, he has the foundations for success.

    Plymouth travel to one of the best league climbers at the end of last season. Can’t see Wednesday starting like they did last year. Straight forward home win
