In comes Joost van Aken, after completing his three-game suspension, for Kadeem Harris – who begins his own three-match ban after being sent off for apparent violent conduct in the victory against the Cherries on Tuesday evening.

Here’s how the Owls line-up for today’s encounter with Gary Rowett’s Lions.

Wildsmith; Iorfa, van Aken, Borner; Odubajo, Pelupessy, Bannan, Reach, Palmer; Kachunga, Windass.

And this is how Wednesdayites on Twitter have reacted to the team selected by Monk, whose side will be hoping to make it two wins on the bounce this week at S6.

@charlieswfc_ What does Penney have to do to get in the team?

@dan_N_smith Matt Penney’s this season’s Hutch/Westwood.

@mattjohns1978 Moaners are at it already. Don’t mind the defence at all with Iorfa, Borner and Van Aken as a three. Interesting to see wing backs and I’m guessing Brown is still getting back to match fitness but a great asset off the bench. Lots of strikers to chose from. #UTO #WAWAW

@scottcain13 Would have started Brown personally but let’s get them three important points

@ashes2015 Swap Reach for Brown and that's half decent

@simonwilks1978 Is Tom Lees still on nappy duty?

@rich_woodhall I’d be fuming if I was Penney. Good luck to the Owls today.

@neilbartrop Moans about Penney not playing. Only seen him have odd decent game for #swfc. Saying he’s this season’s Hutch/Westwood. Maybe there are better players in front of him?
