Sheff. Wed. prepare to entertain Blackpool at Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Owls are clearly on top, winning 60.00% of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Hillsborough was just last season, in February 2004, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a (Associate Members) match.
