The forward drops to the bench, as does Atdhe Nuhiu and Sam Hutchinson. Also missing out are Ash Baker and Daniel Pudil.

In comes fit-again Adam Reach, who missed Sunday's defeat to Brentford after picking up a knock in the warm-up. Liam Palmer also starts along with Fraser Preston and Steven Fletcher.

There's also a first start for left-sided player Matt Penney. The 20 year-old can play as a left winger but is likely to start at left-back tonight, with the Owls expected to play a 4-3-3 formation.

The Lions have made an unbeaten start to the season, with one win and two draws, which includes a weekend win over Derby County.

Sheffield Wednesday XI: Dawson, Palmer, Pelupessy, Fletcher, Bannan, Thorniley, Lees, Matias, Reach, Preston, Penney
