Sheffield Wednesday entertain second-placed Wigan Athletic in their upcoming League One fixture on Tuesday at Hillsborough Stadium.
The hosts made it three wins in a row in the English third tier as they secured a 2-0 away win at Burton Albion on Saturday. Wigan Athletic are six points behind leaders Rotherham but have played three games fewer.
Their last two league outings have ended in draws and they will be hoping to return to winning ways here. They were in action in the FA Cup fourth round against Stoke City and suffered a 2-0 loss, with Gwion Edwards being sent off in the 73rd minute.
