Preview: Sheffield Wednesday v Bolton

SETTING THE SCENE
Bolton Wanderers return to Sky Bet Championship action on Tuesday night as the Whites travel to Sheffield Wednesday.

Still searching for a first win on their travels this season, Bolton boast a strong record at Hillsborough having won on each of their last four visits to the ground.

However, Sheffield Wednesday have lost just once at home all season, while they are unbeaten from their last 11 matches in front of their own fans.

Currently sitting two points outside the play-off places, the Owls will be keen to once again make home advantage count as they look to forge a promotion push.

But with the Trotters in need of points themselves at the other end of the table, both sides will have plenty to play for come kick off.

TEAM NEWS
Emile Heskey is unavailable as he continues to battle a calf problem, with manager Neil Lennon confirming Saturday’s game against Nottingham Forest as a more likely return date for the forward.

LAST SHEFF WED XI (v Fulham, W2-1)
Wildsmith, Palmer, Loovens, Sasso, Pudil, Lee, Lopez (Helan 45), Sougou (Nuhiu 59), Wallace (Semedo 77), Bannan, Joao.

ONE TO WATCH
Sheffield Wednesday’s leading goalscorer so far this season with ten goals, Fernando Forestieri has been a revelation since joining the Owls from Premier League Watford last summer.

A member of the Hornets’ side that won promotion to the top-flight last year, the former Italy Under-21s international has netted braces in each of his last two appearances at Hillsborough against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Birmingham City respectively.

And despite being an injury doubt for Tuesday night’s game having missed Saturday’s FA Cup victory over Fulham, Head Coach Carlos Carvalhal is hopeful Forestieri will be fit enough to return to lead Wednesday’s attack against Bolton.

Ref watch: Simon Hooper to oversee Sheffield Wednesday trip

Simon Hooper will officiate Wanderers' trip to Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night.

Taking charge of his eighth Whites game in total, the Wiltshire-based official last oversaw a Bolton game earlier this season when the Trotters hosted Leeds United back in October. 

Mr. Hooper has overseen 27 games so far this campaign, handing out 63 yellow cards and two red cards.

Wayne Barratt and Akil Howson will run the line, while Christopher Sarginson will be the fourth official.

it sounds like there will be no Vela, Clough and Mavies so theres a good start  . I can only see us getting beat quite easily, i went for 2-0

Going off the press conference it would seem Lennon has still not learned the lessons of the season so far and appears to be intent on sticking with the same squad and system - or at least as close to it as poss. Very disappointed he's not planning ahead.

Wednesday 6 - 0 Wanderers

Shef Weds 5 Bolton 0

Wednesday 8 - 0 Wanderers

Bloody hell, Doff!

You've ruined it.

Anyway.....

Wednesday 3 Bolton 0.

One thing for certain it will them summat and us nil, they could royally take the piss tonight, I'm dreading it

Anything less than a three goal margin will be a good result .

Vela and Clough available for selection apparently.

I'll be the cockeyed optimist and say SWFC 0 - 1 BWFC. Got no reason to believe it will happen, I just want it to and want there to be one positive post on this thread.

Of course that could be my medication talking. NURSE!  

2-2 Holding and madine

Woolery and Clough definitely in tonight's squad

Iles - Clough and Vela will play tonight. Been checking if deals to move elsewhere are still live... They are #bwfc

Hopefully it works
