Sheffield Wednesday will be hoping the so-called new manager bounce is nowhere to be seen when AFC Wimbledon visit Hillsborough this afternoon.

The Dons, who are winless in 21 games in all competitions and have lost five in row, appointed Mark Bowen as their new boss this week as they bid to stay in League One.

The Owls need a win themselves, but for different reasons entirely.

They are looking to solidify their place in the top six.

Key Events

  • Visitors are winless in 21 games in all competitions, but appointed a new boss this week
  • Owls looking for back-to-back wins to solidify play-off place
  • Olamide Shodipo back in matchday squad for first time since December

Hunt’s pass cuts through Wimbledon’s defence and finds Mendez-Laing, but he drags a low effort wide of the left-hand post.

Wednesday finding their groove

The Owls are finding a bit more space and the game is starting to open up a little as Bannan lets one fly from range, but it goes over.

GOAL - Jack Hunt...again!

Bannan’s whipped cross from the left-hand side is missed by Gregory before Hunt arrives at the back post with a diving header into the top corner.

Two goals in as many games, who would have thought it?

A little too confident from Byers

He tries a back-flick to Iorfa, but it misses by a few yards and the defender, who was the last man, is forced to clear up.

Wimbledon sitting deep

The Dons seem happy to let the home side have plenty of the ball and after some patient play the Owls force the game’s first corner.

Bannan’s delivery is met by Sam Hutchinson, who nods it wide.
