Sheffield Wednesday are confident midfielder Barry Bannan will be fit, but Sam Hutchinson (groin) is a doubt.

Tottenham loanee Josh Onomah (hamstring) is set to be out for another month because of the injury that has kept him out since Boxing Day.

Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence will again be in charge of the Owls, with new manager Steve Bruce not taking up the reins until 1 February.
