Match Facts

Sheffield Wednesday have lost one of their last six home league games against Cardiff City (W3 D2), going down 2-1 in December 2019.
Cardiff are looking to complete a league double over Sheffield Wednesday for the first time since the 2012-13 campaign.
Sheffield Wednesday have won three of their last four league games (L1), after winning just one of their opening 18 games this season (D4 L13).
Cardiff have picked up just seven points in their last eight league games (W2 D1 L5) – in their eight games before this run, they won 16 points (W5 D1 L2).
Sheffield Wednesday’s Bailey-Tye Cadamarteri has scored in three of his last four league games, including each of his last two. Aged 18 years and 228 days on the day of this game, he could be the youngest player to score in three Championship appearances in a row since Chris Martin in March 2007 (18y 119d).
