Sheffield Wednesday v Bournemouth - Updates from pre-season friendly
Kick-off looks likely to be delayed
Wednesday’s team bus has been held up by a situation in the area.
Forest fires disrupted their Wednesday evening training session as Wednesday’s coaching staff decided the level of ash in the air made it unsafe.
And now a separate fire - there are high risk warnings throughout Portugal at current - has caused roads around the area to be closed, preventing the team from arriving to the game on time.
The match had been scheduled to start at 5pm. We’ll keep you posted.
