The striker hasn't started since the Owls' defeat to Ipswich at the beginning of March, a match in which he was brought off at half time.

Wednesday's injury problems continue with Lucas Joao and Atdhe Nuhiu both unable to play after picking up knocks in the defeat to QPR in midweek. Daniel Pudil has also been forced to drop out.
