The Owls make the trip to Forest Green Rovers and will be backed by a rammed away end, as they will at Cheltenham Town on Tuesday.

The near 300-mile round journey is for a match that will be broadcast live on Sky Sports – the third Wednesday clash in as many weeks that will be shown live on television.

Darren Moore’s side are hunting a historic League One title and have been cheered on all season by committed away followings.

Indeed, Wednesday have the highest average away following in the division as things stand, with the likes of Derby County and Ipswich Town following on.
