Preview: Sheffield Wednesday vs. Huddersfield Town

Sports Mole previews the match between Sheffield Wednesday and Huddersfield Town in the Championship.

Sheffield Wednesday host Huddersfield Town in the Yorkshire derby on Saturday looking to pick up just their second victory on the season.

The Owls have drawn eight of their 14 league fixtures which has seen them remain in the relegation zone for the majority of the campaign, but a lunchtime triumph over Huddersfield could see them move as high as 18th.

Huddersfield come into the game on the back of a disappointing 3-1 loss to Birmingham City as they continue to fall down the table after a promising start to the season.

Manager Mark Robins suffered a blow after that match after it was revealed that captain Peter Clarke would be absent for three months with a knee injury, and that could see Joel Lynch introduced in defence.

Sports Mole says: 1-1
