The action continues in round 22 of the EFL Championship when Sheffield Wednesday and Queens Park Rangers square off at the Hillsborough Stadium on Saturday.
Marti Cifuentes’ men head into the weekend unbeaten in their last four matches and will be looking to steer clear of the relegation zone.
Sheffield Wednesday were sent crashing back to earth on Wednesday as they fell to a 3-1 defeat against Norwich City at Carrow Road.
Prior to that, Danny Rohl’s side snapped their four-match winless run with a 3-1 victory over Blackburn Rovers on December 2, one week before claiming a 1-0 win at Stoke City.
Despite Sheffield Wednesday’s recent resurgence, they currently sit 23rd in the EFL Championship table, level on 13 points with rock-bottom Rotherham United.
Elsewhere, Queens Park Rangers failed to make use of their numerical advantage as they were held to a goalless draw by 10-man Plymouth Argyle last time out.
Cifuentes’ men were previously on a run of three consecutive victories, seeing off Stoke City, Preston North End and Hull City respectively.
With 20 points from 21 matches, QPR are currently 22nd in the league table, one point behind 21st-placed Huddersfield Town just outside the relegation zone.
