Two struggling sides face off against each other as Plymouth Argyle host bottom placed Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship.
Newly-promoted Plymouth Argyle have struggled in the Championship this season as they sit just four points above safety. Winless since their 6-2 thrashing of Norwich City, the Pilgrims would want to dent their rivals' hopes of staying afloat with maximum points playing in their own backyard.
The League One reigning champions have the required pedigree to climb up the ladder in England's second-division and Steven Schumacher's side will look to win the game against a struggling Sheffield Wednesday.
The visitors are on a wretched streak of 12 winless games in their opening 12 matches as Sheffield Wednesday's hunt for their opening win continues in the Championship. Draws against Leeds United, Middlesbrough, and Huddersfield have helped take their points tally to three points but the side are struggling as they are seeded at the foot of the table.
With Danny Rohl taking charge of the club after the international break, the Owls' fortune have remained the same as they lost to Watford after the resumption of club football. Rohl would be vying to pick up maximum points on Wednesday before a sword hangs over his head as well.
