and live on Freeview channel 276
Both Jack Hunt and Reece James have been sidelined for a few weeks now after picking up calf and groin injuries, but made the 18-man squad at Hillsborough for the final game of the regular campaign.
It’s a double boost for Darren Moore heading into the play-offs, giving the Owls boss extra options to call upon either from the start or off the bench against Peterborough United.
And the he’s very pleased about it.

“Jack Hunt got on the pitch, which was great, Reece James is back, he’s trained, and he’ll get another full weeks’ training in. So it’s good to see one or two known faces back in the team.”
