Emirates FA Cup round two
Hillsborough
The Owls welcome League Two Mansfield to S6 as attention turns to the Emirates FA Cup.
Darren Moore’s men have hit a purple patch of seven league games unbeaten which they will be out to extend in cup competition.
The Stags present the next challenge following our 2-0 home win over Morecambe in the first round.
Mansfield progressed to round two courtesy of a 1-0 success on the road at fellow League Two side Barrow.
TEAM NEWS
Wednesday: Wednesday will be without Josh Windass, who sustained a groin strain during our 1-0 win over Shrewsbury last Saturday.
Akin Famewo played 45 minutes for the Under-21s in midweek but this weekend is likely to come too soon for the defender’s first team return.
Dennis Adeniran and George Byers are making good progress from their respective injuries.
Mansfield: Stags duo Ollie Clarke and Riley Harbottle could return to duty having missed the trip to Harrogate last weekend.
