Sheffield Wednesday suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Brentford at Hillsborough last night, and failed to strengthen their grip on a place in the Sky Bet Championship top-six.
John Egan and Harlee Dean’s goals were enough to put the Bees in a commanding position during the first-half, and Dean Smith’s side kept the Owls at bay until the 93rd minute, where Fernando Forestieri snatched a late consolation.
Carlos Carvalhal’s side missed the chance to move fourth in the Championship, and ten-points clear of seventh placed Norwich City, who are in hot pursuit of the Play-Offs.
Wednesday now turn their attentions to Saturday’s Yorkshire Derby with Leeds United, who themselves are chasing promotion back to the Premier League.
If either or the Yorkshire clubs can record a victory on Saturday, it would likely secure them a place in the end of season Play-Offs.
