The Owls took on the Hatters at Hillsborough in their final preseason friendly, and Juan Delgado was given his first start since being the first signing of Xisco’s tenure at the club. For the manager’s thoughts on the game, check out the video above.

Ashley Fletcher also made the squad, though only on the bench before coming on in the second half, while there was also a return to the pitch for both Liam Palmer and Mallik Wilks after their injury recovery.
