The Verdict

Following a relatively inconsistent start to the season, Wednesday are now starting to thrive in League One under the guidance of manager Darren Moore.

Having won five of their last six league games, the Owls will not be daunted by the prospect of facing Rotherham despite the fact that Paul Warne's side are currently nine points clear of their closest rivals Wigan.

In order to have the best chance of securing all three points in this fixture, the Owls may need to look towards Mendez-Laing for inspiration.

Since sealing a move to the club in November, the winger has managed to provide a respectable total of four direct goal contributions in nine league appearances.

By adding to this tally on Sunday, Mendez-Laing could potentially help his side send out a real signal of intent to the rest of League One by securing victory in their showdown with the Millers.
