Sheffield Wednesday Hosts Brentford in Weekend FA Cup Test

On Saturday, EFL Championship side Sheffield Wednesday welcomes Premier League London side Brentford to the Hillsborough Stadium for what is sure to be a thrilling 90 minutes of football. 

The Owls will look to get their home crowd behind them in an attempt to unsettle the Bees. They are known for both their organisational skills and their attack in play when they are on the ball. 

For Keith Andrews, Brentford's squad rotation will be key for Saturday's game as they look to settle into the game quickly and to cause an upset against Wednesday, who dream of lifting the FA Cup trophy for the 1st time since 1913, when they had beaten Arsenal at Wembley. 

It’s a tie that carries all the ingredients of a cup upset — intensity, history, and a home side with nothing to lose. Hillsborough is ready for a battle.
