Our pre-match preview

Oldham are likely to press high and use the home crowd to push the tempo, looking to win the ball early and attack quickly. Sheffield Wednesday will probably be happy to sit deeper and counter, which could make the first half cagey and the second more open.

The key battle is between Oldham's wide attackers and Wednesday's full-backs, since whoever wins the one-on-one duels in wide areas will shape where the chances come from. A physical midfield contest will also decide how much space either side gets between the lines.
