Sheffield Wednesday will host Hull City at the Hillsborough Stadium on Monday in another round of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign.
The home side have endured an overall difficult campaign but continue their fight for survival. They returned to winning ways on Friday, beating Preston North End 1-0, with Marvin Johnson scoring the sole goal of the game midway through the first half to hand the Owls their first win at Deepdale since 2011.
Sheffield Wednesday sit 23rd in the Championship standings with 19 points from 25 games. They are two points above last-placed Rotherham United and will be looking to widen that gap on New Year's Day.
Hull City, meanwhile, have performed largely well this season and are now pushing for a spot in the promotion playoffs at the end of the campaign. They beat Blackburn Rovers 3-2 in their last match, squandering a two-goal lead in the first half before Alfie Jones got on the scoresheet just after the hour mark to help the Tigers reclaim the lead and ultimately secure maximum points.
