With the Gunners keen to put down a marker this season it is likely that boss Arsene Wenger will put a reasonably strong team out this evening, but Wednesday striker Atdhe Nuhiu thinks the Owls are more than capable of pulling off a shock.

The South Yorkshire club have started the season in decent style themselves and currently occupy ninth place in the Sky Bet Championship, setting up a fascinating contest under the Hillsborough lights this evening.

Nuhiu told Goal.com: "Last season we faced Manchester City in the cup and for long periods of the tie we proved that we can handle the best teams.

"We will take confidence from that game into this tie on Tuesday evening.

"Everyone is expecting Arsenal to win, so really there is no pressure on us at all. We have nothing to lose and can just enjoy the game.

"It will be great to play against such a big team and I am positive that we can hurt them and cause an upset."

No doubt Wednesday will keep one eye on the league with their team selection this evening but the Gunners will need to be wary of the attacking threat the Owls could possess.

The Owls have been in superb form this season in the league, and are currently unbeaten in seven league fixtures, something that will five the Wednesday faithful much optimism, going into tonight's fixtures with Premier League giants Arsenal.
