Sheff. Wed. prepare to entertain Swansea City at Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The The Owls have a healthy record in the fixture, winning 7 from 13 meetings.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Hillsborough was less than a year ago, in March 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides
Sheffield Wednesday's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While The Owls have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Swansea City's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. A generous 6 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Sheff. Wed. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola Championship with a return of just 18 points from their 21 games thus far. Swansea City's total of 32 points from their 21 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola Championship.
