Sheffield Wednesday will host Premier League outfit, Brentford, in the third round of this year’s FA Cup.

Wednesday haven’t had great cup runs over the last couple of years, falling at the first hurdle last season and the second hurdle seasons before. They will, however, be hoping to bring back some memories of the 2022/23 campaign when they saw off Newcastle United - though they also didn’t make it past the fourth round that year. They haven’t done so since 2019/20.

Sheffield Wednesday vs Brentford in the FA Cup

Wednesday are no strangers to the Bees having played them 12 times over the last decade, and they went toe-to-toe with them in the Carabao Cup last year before losing on penalties in the capital.

Henrik Pedersen have already beaten top-flight opponents this season having seen off Leeds United in the League Cup, and the Dane will be hoping for a similar sort of performance when Keith Andrews and his men come to town.

The third round will be played around the weekend of Saturday January 10th, with full details to be provided at a later date.
