Match preview: Owls v Huddersfield

Wednesday are back in action this evening facing Huddersfield Town at Hillsborough.

It’s another quick turnaround for the Owls, who were narrowly beaten by the league leaders Norwich on Sunday.

Next-up for Darren Moore's side is the Terriers, who sit 18th in the Championship.
