Sheff. Wed. travel to take on Exeter City at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Most of the previous meetings have ended up in defeat for the The Owls.
The last time the two teams met at Exeter City was way back in the black-and-white days of April 1980, the Grecians carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Third Division match.
