The day has finally arrived; the big Steel City derby is just hours away, and it’s got us thinking about how Danny Rohl might set up his Sheffield Wednesday side for the game.
It’s been a pretty good season for both sides of the Sheffield divide, with the Owls still in with an outside shot at claiming a play-off spot, and the Blades pushing Leeds United right to the wire for the Championship title.
This kind of game is always hard to call, with experts predicting a low-scoring Steel City derby this time around at Hillsborough.
Three points for either time would be a huge boost for either side in pursuit of their goals this season, while the bragging rights may be even more valuable.
Danny Rohl knows he will have a tough task on his hands this lunchtime, but one player could come into the fold and make a big difference for the Owls.
Last time out, Wednesday pulled off a stunning comeback to beat Norwich City. From two goals down at half-time to 3-2 winners, the Owls showed their resilience and determination on Tuesday night, and they’ll be hoping for similar fight in the derby.
