History of the Sheffield Wednesday v Norwich City fixture

Sheff. Wed. prepare to entertain Norwich City at Hillsborough at lunchtime on Sunday, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Owls are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 4 of the 21 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Hillsborough was just last season, in April 2006, the The Owls carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Championship match.
