Former Ipswich Town striker makes Sheffield Wednesday selection prediction
and live on Freeview channel 276
Dawson was a surprise choice between the sticks as he kept a clean sheet against Oxford United on Saturday, saving a late penalty to keep the score at 0-0 and take the Owls’ unbeaten run in League One to 10 games.
Darren Moore is now left with a decision on whether to keep the shot-stopper in goal for the trip to Fleetwood Town next week, or reinstall David Stockdale – who has kept 11 clean sheets in the league so far.

When asked if Dawson should keep his place, Parkin said, “Yes he has to, not just for the penalty save but he made some really important stops throughout the game where Oxford were a little bit wasteful in front of goal.
“They probably created enough chances to feel they should’ve won the game - but it took a last minute save from Dawson to get a share of the spoils.
Three games for Sheffield Wednesday now, three straight draws, and only one goal scored so it has just stalled a little bit for them but credit Oxford today for a decent performance.”
