Sheffield Wednesday perform at a high level so far being 6th in the table. Brentford can look both up and down from their 9th position.
It's no vacation for neither Sheffield Wednesday nor Brentford as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
