Sheffield Wednesday: Shrewsbury boss confident of cup upset
The Shrews sit just a point clear of the third tier drop zone as they welcome Wednesday to Greenhous Meadow for the fourth round tie.
Results have proved all or nothing for Mellon’s side this season with only five of their 28 league games drawn.
And that has been frustrating for the Scotsman.

“We know what we’re capable of. We know we’re well capable of getting a result.”
While league matters may be a major concern for the Shrews, they have performed well in the cup so far this season.
They beat Blackburn Rovers away in the first round of the Capital One Cup and knocked Cardiff City out in the last stage of the FA Cup.

He said: “It’s a fantastic tie. They’re a massive football club.
“They’re doing fantastic in the division they’re in.
“It’s all there for us. It’s a great challenge.
“We seem to be able to find a way of getting results in the cup.”
