The Owls face Harrogate Town on Tuesday evening in our final Group H game of the Papa John’s Trophy.
Wednesday and Harrogate are already assured of places in the last 16 of the competition but the Hillsborough clash will determine who tops the group and has home advantage in round two as a result.
The eight winners and eight runners-up of the North and South group stages qualify for the round of 32.
The round of 32 pairings are determined by a draw whereby the winner of a group will be drawn at home and play a runner-up of a group from the same region (but not the same group).
This will be the first ever competitive fixture between the Owls and Harrogate.
