Follow live coverage as Sheffield Wednesday face Bristol City in the Championship today. An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.

Bristol City make the trip to Sheffield Wednesday on Wednesday as both sides look to close in on a place in the playoff spots (19:45 GMT) - here are the stats.

Nahki Wells and Ross McCrorie helped Bristol City come from behind twice to draw 2-2 with Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough.

Probably the Reds' best player in the opening half. Did what he could to keep Bannan quiet and as usual covered every blade of grass. Added some much-needed energy on the ball at the start of the second period as well, even if it he faded slightly.

On the left, however, it seems likely that Roberts will keep his place as Cam Pring remains sidelined. Elijah Morrison is the obvious alternative but he did feature as a second-half substitute in Bristol City Under-21's win over QPR on Monday and it would therefore be a surprise to see him start another game so soon after.

Sheffield Wednesday drew with Bristol City Djeidi Gassama and Di’Shon Bernard getting the goals on the night. It had been a while since the Owls have played on home turf, and having had to train on the pitch recently due to the cold weather, there were plenty of people interested to see how the field of play will look as the Robins came to town.
