Sheffield Wednesday host league leaders Leicester City in the Championship tomorrow night.
Sheffield Wednesday face arguably their toughest opponents of the season on Wednesday night.
Leicester City come to Hillsborough where they’ll be going in search of their 14th win of the season so far, with the Foxes having a three-point lead at the top of the table after beating Watford on Saturday.
Danny Rohl saw his side lose 2-1 at Birmingham City following what was a decent performance from the Owls, who scored through George Byers.
But another defeat leaves Sheffield Wednesday stranded in last place of the Championship table and now 10 points from safety.
Latest Sheffield Wednesday team news
After picking up a fifth yellow card of the season vs Birmingham City, 29-year-old Josh Windass is now serving a one-game suspension, but Callum Paterson is set to return to the side.
Michael Smith has missed the last two with a minor injury and could be absent again tomorrow night.
Elsewhere, Juan Delgado and Momo Diaby remain longer-term absentees for Sheffield Wednesday.
How will the Owls line up vs Leicester City?
Fans continue to call for a change in goal following another questionable performance from Cameron Dawson last time out, but whether a game against Leicester City is the best place to do that remains to be seen.
With Windass suspended and the £15k-per-week Smith doubtful, a space opens up in attack, and it could be a return to the XI for Lee Gregory who Rohl chose to rest vs Birmingham; Bailey Cadamarteri could well be in line for some more game time, most likely as a substitute though.
Di’Shon Bernard could return to the XI after starting on the bench last time out, following an active international break for the Jamaican defender.
The left-back spot remains a contested one with Akin Famewo keeping both Marvin Johnson and Reece James out of the side right now, and the left-wing space could quickly become a contested one too with Mallik Wilks given a rare start last time out.
Antony Musaba may face the axe after a poor showing vs Birmingham, with Djeidi Gassama an option to replace him in the XI.
With a few players to rotate, here’s how we expect Sheffield Wednesday to line up tomorrow…
