Last updated : 10 August 2017 By C. Morris

Tricky trip for Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday’s reward for the 4-1 routing of Chesterfield in the 1st round of the Carabao Cup is a trip west to Bolton in the 2nd round.

The Owls will travel to Lancashire in the midweek likely to be 22nd or 23rd August, sandwiched in between Championship away games at Fulham and Burton Albion.

Championship new boys Bolton won 2-1 away at Crewe in the first round. The teams last met in the Championship 2 seasons ago with Wednesday winning 3-2 at Hillsborough having drawn 0-0 at Bolton earlier in the season.
