Steven Fletcher misses out as in-form Sheffield Wednesday host Bristol City
and live on Freeview channel 276
Twelve-goal top-scorer Steven Fletcher misses out altogether and is replaced in attack by Atdhe Nuhiu. It is a big blow for Wednesday, with Fletcher having scored seven goals in his last six starts.
Captain Tom Lees has been passed fit to play, having recovered from a minor hamstring injury sustained in their impressive 4-0 hammering of Nottingham Forest last time out. Lees partners Dominic Iorfa again at the heart of Wednesday's defence.
