Sheffield Wednesday could potentially surge into the top six of the Championship with a win over West Bromwich Albion.

In stark contrast to the dire position Wednesday found themselves in a year ago, the Owls are in the hunt for promotion and are hovering outside the play-off places.

The final play-off spot is currently occupied by West Brom, who sit two points above the Owls.

FA Cup fourth round action has reduced the number of Championship fixtures due to take place this weekend, handing Wednesday a golden opportunity.
