Sheffield Wednesday host Bournemouth this evening at Hillsborough.
After what was a positive start to the campaign, the Owls have stuttered in the past week and a half and will be looking to bounce back to halt the four-game losing streak.
It’s been a different story for the Cherries, who have adapted back to life in the Championship superbly.
Jason Tindall’s side are unbeaten in nine games, with four wins and five draws.
They sit third in the division, five points off top spot.
