Potential Sheffield Wednesday XI for Stockport County should Xisco ring the changes

It’s an impossible task at the best of times, predicting Sheffield Wednesday line-ups for a forthcoming match.

But under a new manager with new ideas and for a Carabao Cup match so early in the season? Next level tough.

We’ve given it a go regardless as Wednesday prepare to welcome Stockport County to Hillsborough for a first round clash.

Much of the selection will come down to how Xisco wishes to play it - ring the changes and rest legs after a busy preseason or go full-strength, hoping to build a head of steam heading into Saturday’s return to league action at Hull City.

Let us know what side you’d go for.
