Sheffield Wednesday will have a number of players missing as they host Cardiff City this evening.
The hosts take on Cardiff in the FA Cup third round after a run of brilliant form, having won five of their last eight games.
However, one of their three defeats since November came against the Bluebirds, who beat them 2-1 at Hillsborough due to an own goal from Akin Famewo.
The same scoreline occurred in Wales back in August, when Cardiff claimed all three points in their Championship outing.
Sheffield Wednesday will be fairly confident they can get their revenge today though, but a number of absentees could make it a little more challenging.
Here is the latest injury news from both Sheffield Wednesday and Cardiff heading into the game…
Sheffield Wednesday
Sheffield Wednesday will be without two players due to suspension, with Bambo Diaby serving the final game of his absence after he was shown a red card in the Boxing Day defeat to Coventry City.
George Byers serves his second game after he was dismissed against Preston, after he was brought onto replace the injured Will Vaulks.
Danny Rohl has confirmed that Vaulks will be out for a ‘minimum of two weeks’ after picking up a muscle injury, while Callum Paterson remains a doubt. The German manager admitted he would have to be ‘careful’ with the versatile star, who hasn’t played since Boxing Day.
Jeff Hendrick has been absent for a month now due to a knee problem, while Dominic Iorfa hasn’t featured since he was forced off inside five minutes in the win over Blackburn Rovers.
Meanwhile, Akin Famewo will return to action, while Tyreeq Bakinson could miss out as he closes in on a loan move to Charlton Athletic.
Cardiff City
Callum O’Dowda only managed four appearances for Cardiff this season before he was sidelined with a leg injury, which will keep him out of today’s clash.
Aaron Ramsey also misses out with a knee problem that he sustained back in September. The Welshman had netted three goals in six games prior.
Dimitrios Goutas scored the opener in Cardiff’s win against QPR last time out, however he has been handed extended leave following his grandmother’s death. The club confirmed that he had returned to training but would not be available to face The Owls.
Karlan Grant is a doubt with a hamstring injury, with the Bluebirds assistant coach Nikolaos Karydas claiming they would make a last-minute decision on his availability.
