The 4-1 defeat to Coventry City in the FA Cup was the second successive game in which the Owls have shipped four goals, hardly a promising statistic for a club embroiled in a relegation battle.

After defeats to Huddersfield Town and Coventry, Wednesday are set to host Birmingham in a battle of two struggling sides. The Blues enjoyed a promising start to the season under John Eustace but entered a period of decline when Eustace was replaced by Wayne Rooney.

The former England star has since been replaced himself, with the vastly experienced Tony Mowbray now at the helm.
