Match preview

After a 1-1 draw at Hillsborough in the original tie, these two League One clubs must do it all over again.

That day, Promise Omochere’s opener had Fleetwood set for a shock away win, only for Josh Earl’s own goal to ensure it ended all square.

This was a bit of a surprise, given that Sheffield Wednesday had beaten Fleetwood at the same venue in the league a week earlier, and are 32 points better off in the table.

At the weekend, Darren Moore’s men overcame Plymouth 1-0, Callum Patterson the scorer, so remain top of League One.

The Owls are enduring back-to-back seasons in the third-tier, meaning they are desperate to get back into the Championship.

Fleetwood meanwhile have reached the FA Cup fourth round for the first time ever, seeing off Oxford City, Ebbsfleet United and QPR to get here.

In league terms, Scott Brown’s team are just aiming to stay clear of the relegation zone and are doing that, sat 17th, despite losing six of their last seven.

Despite the fact the Cods managed a draw on the road ten days ago, Sheffield Wednesday are likely to be too strong at Highbury.

Whoever does prevail will travel to Burnley or Ipswich in round five.
