The Owls had games against both sides postponed last month following a Covid-19 outbreak at Middlewood Road, with the two home games getting called off in the build-up to Christmas.
Now, with the Owls in the middle of a mini-break due to being knocked out of the FA Cup, they have revealed when those two matches have been re-arranged for as Darren Moore’s side prepare to welcome the two clubs to Hillsborough.
