Sheffield Wednesday: Live updates from Darren Moore on new signings and injury latest pre-Crewe Alexandra
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Owls could make it 12 games unbeaten if they avoid defeat against the League One strugglers, but Moore will certainly be wary of the potential banana skin after Alexandra picked up a win over Lincoln City in their last game.
Wednesday have signed two new players in recent days, firstly Jayden Onen and then Kwame Boateng, and no doubt the Owls boss will have something to say about their arrival.
