Wednesday are hoping to get back to winning ways after three consecutive draws in League One, and Henrik Pedersen has rung the changes in his XI after last weekend’s 2-2 result with Huddersfield Town.
The game will get underway at 3pm, and the Owls could climb as high as second place if they win and other results elsewhere go their way. They won’t, however, be at full strength.

The Wednesday Word understands that Lumley has been forced to sit out today’s encounter at Hillsborough after picking up a rib injury, and while the full extent is not yet known, it’s not thought - at this stage - to be anything overly serious.
Ashley-Maynard Brewer comes in to replace him, and there’s also a return for both Max Lowe and Ali Al-Hamadi after their recent issues. They both make the bench, with Mason Burstow the loanee to miss out as Al-Hamadi makes the squad.
We’ll be speaking to Pedersen after today’s game for an update on the shot-stopper’s condition, with the Dane potentially able to give some clarity on whether he’s a doubt for the trip to Notts County or not.
