Live blog: Sheffield Wednesday v Wigan Athletic

Once again the biggest focus of pre-match chat on social media has been Tendayi Darikwa’s selection at left-back, to accommodate Max Power at right-back. That didn’t work against Oxford last Tuesday, prompting an early change, but Leam Richardson has gone with it again. It’ll be interesting to see how that pans out. Darikwa looks less comfortable on the left, but Power’s delivery the right is a major source of attacking joy.

Leam Richardson again rotates his squad, with James McClean back after missing the FA Cup defeat at Stoke, and Jack Whatmough and Curtis Tilt coming in at the heart of the defence.
