Good afternoon, Wednesdayites and a warm welcome to The Star’s live coverage of Sheffield Wednesday’s latest League One outing as they make the trip to Port Vale.

It is the first meeting between the two sides since 2009 and the Owls will be hoping to add three points onto the tally against a side freshly promoted from League Two.

The Valiants will be no pushovers, however, and Darren Moore himself guarded against the prospect of taking things lightly.

These are the games that cost Wednesday last season and they’ll no doubt be desperate to claim a win at the start of a congested October timetable.

Port Vale v Sheffield Wednesday - Updates as Owls look to take top spot

Bannan and Wilks link up nicely on the left and Wilks fires in a stunning-looking cross in Windas’’ direction, but a Port Vale man nips in just ahead to clear.

Encouraging!

Wilks twists and turns and earns a free kick on the edge of the box - whatever he had at half-time.. more of it please.

So close the Wednesday fans thought it was in - beautifully flighted ball from Bannan, who has the beating of the Vale keeper, but it’s a whisker wide.

Yellow for Harrison

He flew into James - an ugly one, that. Mistimed and sore by the look of things.

Pato has caused a problem or two - but he’s in the book after a flare-up.
