The Owls vs Mansfield Town. Official Matchday Thread


Recommended Posts

Off we go again.

 

How about a nice cup run to go with our promotion push? Let’s turn this lot over tonight and get a couple of the big teams in the following rounds. Revenge against City in a packed out Hillsborough would be nice for one.

 

Wembley here we come!

MATCH FACTS

 

Sheffield Wednesday duo Rhoys Wiggins and Modou Sougou may make their debuts having not featured in the squad for the opening-day win over Bristol City. Head coach Carlos Carvalhal is still expected to be without injured pair Claude Dielna and Filipe Melo.

 

Mansfield Town are still missing defender Lee Collins. He suffered a knock prior to the draw with Carlisle United on Saturday and boss Adam Murray does not want to rush him back.

This will be the first competitive meeting between the clubs since January 1991. Mansfield have been knocked out by Sheffield Wednesday on all three occasions that they have met in a domestic cup tie, with all three meetings coming in the FA Cup.

 

The Owls have progressed to the next round in their last five League Cup ties at home.

 

This is the fourth successive League Cup tie that Mansfield have played away from home - they have lost the previous three.

Nice one Pauli.  Would be great to go on a decent cup run. 

 

I'm going for an easy 5-0 Wednesday win.  

 

Wildsmith to start between the sticks. 

 

Goals coming from Joao, Lavery, Lee, Lachmann and Matias.  

 

COME ON WEDNESDAY!!

Well this OMDT combined with the info above from zico.b means there is only ever one way this is going to go.

Sorry Mansfield. mmmmmmm Janelicious.

Cheers Pauli. Morning all, hope you're keeping well.

No idea who's going to score as I've no idea who'll be playing. Would like to see a significant rotation of Saturday's squad though and bring some of the fringe players into the fray. Let's do this, a decent cup run would put the cherry on top of a promotion season. 

(oops, didn't mean to let that out. Spoilers).
