Sheffield Wednesday will welcome Birmingham City to Hillsborough this evening for an important Championship clash. The Owls are on the hunt for a big three points as they look to claw their way out of the relegation zone.
Including their latest FA Cup meetings, Wednesday are now six games without a win. Their last Championship meeting saw them handed a hefty 4-0 loss at the hands of Huddersfield Town. Birmingham are out of the bottom three but only four points above QPR in 22nd, so the Blues are also viewing this as a must-win clash.
Both sides have a list of injuries to consider heading into the game — here's the latest on each team's squad fitness and who is ruled out for the match tonight.

The versatile defender is expected to be absent for an extended period of time following his injury in December
11. Birmingham City: Alex Pritchard (doubt)
Struggling with tightness in his calf but will be assessed ahead of the Owls clash
