Sheffield Wednesday host Fleetwood Town at Hillsborough, with three points on the line in League One on Tuesday.

The home side come into the game on the back of a routine 2-0 victory over Doncaster Rovers on Saturday. Barry Bannan and Dennis Adeniran scored in the space of three second-half minutes to hand the Owls all three points.

Fleetwood suffered a 2-1 defeat away to Lincoln City. Anthony Scully scored a second-half brace to help the hosts complete their comeback victory.

That defeat left the Lanchasire outfit in the relegation zone and they are just one of three sides who are yet to pick up a point this season. Sheffield Wednesday occupy the final playoff spot, with four points garnered from two matches.

The visitors have lost all three competitive fixtures they have played in this season. Wednesday have picked up four points from two League One games.
