Wednesday have the likes of Josh Windass, Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and Ciaran Brennan back in contention, while Lee Gregory was also given the all clear after he left the field during the 0-0 draw with Portsmouth with a bit of a niggle. The game does come too soon, however, for others such as Chey Dunkley, Dennis Adeniran and Sam Hutchinson.

Alex Miller and Joe Crann will bring you all the team news, updates and more as the afternoon progresses – and hopefully there’s a Wednesday win to shout about at the end of it.

Up the Owls.

Crewe having a bit of possession following Wednesday’s second goal, but the Owls are very much keeping them at bay. Things a lot less frantic now that the visitors have a two-goal lead.

Corbeanu has won a corner.

Fans are on the pitch

There’s a delay getting underway again after a number of Wednesdayites stormed the pitch following Gregory’s goal.

And now it’s 2-0!

Gregory with a lovely header.

His first effort was saved, then the ball in from Hunt was put on a sixpence for him. He wasn’t going to miss that. Delightful.

Bright start again!

Corbeanu whips a ball into Paterson, he gets a toe on it and there are shouts for a penalty. Not given.

Second half underway

No changes from the Owls.

Peacock-Farrell - 8

Brennan - 7

Palmer - 6

Johnson - 6

Hunt - 6

Dele-Bashiru - 6

Bannan - 8

Wing - 6

Corbeanu - 7

Paterson - 6

Wednesday lead at the break

The Owls are deservedly ahead at half time thanks to Barry Bannan, but have to thank BPF once again after a penalty save and incredible second stop towards the end of the half.

A good half from Wednesday for the most part, but they need definitely need a second goal.
