Sheffield Wednesday will be determined to halt their 23-match winless run when they welcome Wrexham to Hillsborough on Saturday lunchtime.
The Owls, who drew 2-2 with the Red Dragons at the Racecourse Ground back in August, suffered a sixth successive defeat in all competitions last weekend, losing 2-0 to Bristol City at Ashton Gate. That defeat also marked a seventh successive game without a goal.
Although Wednesday are already as good as relegated, the supporters are understandably desperate for something to cheer, meaning they will be keen to see their team give them something to celebrate against Phil Parkinson’s side.
Marking their first game since the exit of long-serving midfielder Barry Bannan, here is how we think the Owls could line up against the Red Dragons:
1. GK: Murphy Cooper
Making three starts since arriving on loan from QPR earlier this month, Cooper, despite not keeping a clean sheet, has made a solid start to his Wednesday career, making a crop of fine saves. His performance at Bristol City last weekend earned him a place in the Championship Team of the Week. He is a guaranteed starter amid Pierce Charles' unavailability. | UGC
2. RCB: Yan Valery
Still in danger of leaving before the transfer window closes on Monday night, the Owls will be hoping to have Valery back available against Wrexham after he missed the trip to Bristol City last weekend after experiencing some "problems" after the defeat to Birmingham City a few days earlier. Henrik Pedersen neither ruled him out nor confirmed if he was available to return in his pre-match press conference, meaning it remains to be seen if he will feature on Saturday lunchtime. However, if he is deemed fit, he could start at right-sided centre-back. | UGC
3. CB: Gabriel Otegbayo
Lauded by Pedersen on a few occasions recently, Otegbayo has established himself as a regular starter at Hillsborough in the last few weeks. He has started each of the Owls' last seven league matches and that trend should continue this weekend. | UGC
4. LCB: Liam Cooper
Cooper returned from injury against Bristol City, appearing as a second half substitute, meaning he could come back into the starting XI and claim the left-sided centre-back spot. With the likes of Dominic Iorfa and Max Lowe still sidelined, Wednesday need some experience at the back. | UGC
