Key Owl Svante Ingelsson misses out as Sheffield Wednesday XI is named for QPR clash
Henrik Pedersen has named his Sheffield Wednesday XI to face Queens Park Rangers, and there's a key name missing from the squad.
The Owls are looking to bounce back from their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Preston North End earlier this week, but will have to do it without Svante Ingelsson who is believed to be missing due to sickness - we’ll hear more from Pedersen on that after the final whistle.
Meanwhile, Sean Fusire is back in the XI for this one having been on the bench last time out, as is Cole McGhee - once more the bench is almost exclusively made up of academy players excluding Liam Palmer and Nathan Redmond.
For the opposition, former Owl, Ben Hamer, starts between the sticks, and the Rs will see out-of-form Wednesday as a perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways and end their three-game winless streak.
Here’s how the two teams line up -
Queens Park Rangers vs Sheffield Wednesday
Wednesday XI: Charles, Fusire, Iorfa, Otegbayo, McGhee, Amass, Thornton, Bannan, J. Lowe, McNeill, Cadamarteri
QPR XI: Hamer, Mbengue, Dunne, Morrison, Norrington-Davies, Madsen, Varane, Poku, Saito, Burrell, Kone
