The Owls will be looking to maintain their unbeaten league run on home soil under manager Garry Monk this weekend.
Wednesday are unbeaten in six at Hillsborough under Monk.
In-form Brentford are the opposition, who have won six of their last eight league games, including last Saturday’s remarkable 7-0 win over Luton.
Wednesday returned to winning ways last week at Charlton with a double from top scorer Steven Fletcher and a goal from Atdhe Nuhiu.
Heading into the game, just one point separates the two sides, with Brentford (30 points) in seventh spot, one point shy of the play-off places and the Owls (29 points) just behind.
Team news
SWFC: Fernando Forestieri (knee) is unlikely to feature against the Bees.
The Wednesday forward picked up a knock during the first half in last week’s win at The Valley and is expected to be sidelined for 7-10 days.
Julian Börner is available for selection after completing his one-match suspension.
Liam Palmer serves the final game of his three-match ban.
Elsewhere, there are no fresh injuries for the Owls.
Brentford: Winger Sergi Canos (knee) is closing in on a first team return but the trip to Hillsborough may come too soon for the Spaniard.
The other notable injury absentee for the Bees is striker Nikos Karelis (also knee), who is sidelined for a number of months.
It is unlikely the Bees will make any changes to the side that beat Luton so convincingly.
