Garry Monk’s first game as Owls boss on home soil takes place this weekend.
The new era under Monk kicked off last Sunday with a 2-0 victory away at Huddersfield.
Fulham are next-up for the Owls in S6 and Scott Parker’s side will be looking for a return to winnings ways after a run of four games in all competitions without victory.
The Cottagers began the campaign with a 1-0 defeat at Barnsley before winning three games on the spin against Blackburn (2-0), Huddersfield (1-2) and Millwall (4-0).
Since then, a 2-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage, followed by back to back 1-1 draws away at Cardiff and at home to West Brom has seen Fulham slip to 11th after seven games.
Wednesday have won four of their seven outings in the Championship and are the only side in the division who are yet to draw a game.
Team news
SWFC: Owls captain Tom Lees is unlikely to feature against Fulham on Saturday.
The defender has been sidelined with a hamstring injury and will continue to be assessed, Monk confirmed during Thursday’s press conference.
Elsewhere, there are no fresh injury concerns for Wednesday.
Fulham: Harry Arter will be available for the Cottagers after serving a one-match suspension.
Parker says his squad has a clean bill of health ahead of their trip to Hillsborough.
