Sheffield Wednesday and Forest Green Rovers have never faced each other before in the history of the two clubs, but their first meeting awaits Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon.
The Owls have made a fine start to their League One campaign as they aim to get back into the Championship after their relegation in 2021, having won all but one of their last six games as the Sheffield side sit in fourth.
Forest Green have never stepped foot in this division of England before in their history, and haven't quite caught their footing as the newcomers sit in 20th ahead of kick-off, having won just one in their last five before the game.
Team news
Malik Wilks joined Wednesday this weekend, and the highly-coveted capture from Hull is in line to debut against Forest Green this weekend.
Ben Heneghan is unavailable with a hamstring injury, and a decision will be made on Fisayo Dele-Bashiru who picked up a knock in a midweek 3-0 win over Rochdale.
A debut could be in line for Forest Green as well, as well-rated Brentford midfielder Myles Peart-Harris joined the side.
Former Owls striker Conor Wickham could be in line for an appearance.
Likely lineups
Sheffield Wednesday
Stockdale, McGuiness, Iorfa, Ihiekwe, Palmer, Johnson, Byers, Bannan Bakinson, Gregory, Windass
Forest Green
McGee, Cargill, Casey, Moore-Taylor, O'Keefe, McAllister, Peart-Harris, Stevenson, Hendry, Wickham, March
One to watch
Malik Wilks
The former Hull City winger arrived this weekend to great fanfare from Owls fans, and with his debut in line on Saturday, you can expect him to impress.
The forward has played in League One for just two seasons of his career, netting 14 for Doncaster in the 18-19 season, and 19 for Hull during 20-21. Definitely someone to be excited about at this level.
