Leeds United vs Sheffield Wednesday History

Leeds United have achieved a great deal over the course of their lengthy history, albeit under Don Revie and Jimmy Armfield; across the 1960s and 1970s, they were at their very best. At one point, it would be fair to say that the club were among the best in European football. Revie won two league titles, and Armfield took the team to a European Cup Final, which they unjustly lost to Bayern Munich.

Howard Wilkinson then helped the team to a third league crown in 1991/92, just before the Premier League era, during which they have been rather hit-and-miss and often out of the top flight entirely.

Sheffield Wednesday are another club who have often been punching below their weight. The size of the club and its fanbase has often not been replicated by their team’s performance and standing. The last of their four league titles to date came in 1929/30, and since then, much of their achievements have been cup-based.

In 1991 Ron Atkinson led the team to a first major title in decades, when Wednesday defeated Manchester United in the League Cup Final. In 1992/93, they faced Arsenal in both the FA and League Cup Finals, losing both.
