Darren Moore made a couple of changes as he lined up against Scott Brown’s Cod Army once again at Hillsborough, with Mallik Wilks and Callum Paterson entering into the fray on a cold afternoon at Hillsborough.
The Owls had to fight back from behind once again to avoid defeat on Saturday, with a Joshua Earl own goal levelling things up after Promise Omochere had opened the scoring for the visitors.
It wasn’t pretty, and another trip to Fleetwood isn’t what Wednesday would have wanted - but it is now 21 games without defeat for Moore’s outfit.
Here’s how we rated the players after a bitter clash at S6:
1. Cameron Dawson - GK
Dawson is one of the first names on the teamsheet for league games now, and you wouldn’t put it past him to help break the club’s clean sheet record this week. His penalty save against Ipswich was crucial.
2. Akin Famewo - LCB
It was another strong showing from him at Portman Road, and he looks very accomplished at left centre back. Only reason he wouldn’t start would be in order to rest him.
3. Aden Flint - CB
An absolute mountain since coming into the side, proving exactly why Moore wanted him on board. Aerial battles could be key against Morecambe, so another start is expected.
4. Dominic Iorfa - RCB
It’s good to see him getting a run of games in a Wednesday shirt again after a difficult spell, and his pace alongside Flint’s experience has been welcomed.
