- The Owls could move into the play-offs with a win
- First-ever competitive meeting between Sheffield Wednesday and AFC Wimbledon
- Darren Moore’s side are looking to record back-to-back wins in the league for the first time since August
GOAL - Lee Gregory
Bannan slips it through to Gregory following a free-flowing move from the Owls in the Wimbledon half. He shifts the ball onto his left foot and bends it into the bottom right corner. Good team goal.
Brown with the first chance
Jaden Brown latches onto a through ball from Bannan and get a cross-cum-shot away, which is saved by the legs of the Wimbledon keeper.
The Owls are going to need to work the ball well to find space on this tight surface.
Dons dominate opening exchanges
Wimbledon have enjoyed the better of it in the opening 10 minutes with more of the ball, but neither side has created anything yet.
Wild from Wildsmith
The keeper fluffs a clearance which Palmer manages to hack clear before a Wimbledon striker gets onto the loose ball.
Early pressure
Joe Wildsmith is down clutching his head after coming to punch a free-kick to safety. The delivery caused Wednesday’s defence a bit of trouble and almost allowed Wimbledon a shot at goal.
We’re underway
The home side get us started. Sheffield Wednesday’s players are in their pink away strip.
The Owls’ players opted against taking the knee before kick-off.
