The games are coming thick and fast for Sheffield Wednesday as they have another midweek tie, with Norwich City the visitors to Hillsborough this time.
Wednesday will be looking to bounce back after a horrendous 6-2 defeat at home to Watford over the weekend.
Danny Rohl‘s men were firmly beaten by the Hornets and were never truly in the game on Saturday, but two late goals for Watford turned the defeat into a trouncing.
In truth, Rohl got plenty of things wrong and it cost his team dearly against Watford. The result leaves the Owls in 18th place in the Championship table.
Meanwhile, their next opponents, Norwich, are in 10th place after falling to a defeat to Cardiff in the dying moments of their game at the weekend.

Sheffield Wednesday team news and injury updates
Sheffield Wednesday will definitely be without Olaf Kobacki and Akin Famewo for the visit of Norwich on Tuesday.
Kobacki is expected to be out of action until mid-December, while Rohl confirmed Famewo has suffered a big injury that will keep him on the sidelines for months.
Meanwhile, the frustrating injury issues plaguing new signing Nathaniel Chalobah are likely to keep him out of the team until after the November international break.
Norwich team news and injury updates
Norwich boss Johannes Hoff Thorup has a number of absentees to deal with ahead of the Wednesday game, with star striker Josh Sargent out with a groin injury until after the international break.
First-choice goalkeeper, Angus Gunn, is currently unavailable, while Norwich’s preferred midfield three, Anis Ben Slimane, Marcelino Núñez, and Kenny McLean (suspended) are all ruled out, too.
The Canaries will be boosted by the return of Jacob Lungi Sorensen and Christian Fassnacht, though. The pair had been out injured since August but returned to the matchday squad over the weekend.
Sheffield Wednesday vs Norwich prediction
The Owls need a big reaction after that Watford defeat, and a home game against a Norwich team who are struggling of late is the perfect opportunity to put things right.
Norwich are a good team with dangerous players, but if Wednesday can find their rhythm early on and put the Canaries under pressure, they can take the three points here.
