Wednesday v Wigan
Sky Bet Championship
11 February 2014
7.45pm kick-off
Tickets
Wednesdayites are reminded that discounted prices have been held for this game.
The original clash in December was abandoned after half time due to torrential rain after the club had earlier slashed ticket prices given the financial demands on supporters over the Christmas period.
Those prices of just £10 for adults and £5 concessions (over 65 and under 18) in all home areas will remain in place.

One to watch – Marc-Antoine Fortune
The ex-West Brom and Celtic striker has scored three goals in his last seven appearances and is likely to lead the line this evening with strike partner Nick Powell an injury doubt.
The forward’s last goal came against Charlton at the DW when the Addicks led 1-0 until the 88th minute when Fortune scored the equaliser before Jordi Gomez sealed a dramatic comeback.
