Leicester City v Sheffield Wednesday stats and head-to-head record (H2H)

Leicester City will be hoping to take advantage of Sheffield Wednesday's relegation concerns and further strengthen their title aspirations at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday.

Leicester have been in superb form this season, but did drop points in the reverse fixture at Hillsborough in November when Jeff Hendrick's stoppage time effort secured the Owls a share of the spoils.

Whilst there was little to separate them last time out, there's been little to separate them over the years too, with Sheffield Wednesday winning 42 of the 111 meetings in all competition; just two more than Leicester (40).

29 games, including the 1-1 draw almost four months ago, have ended in stalemate, although it's Enzo Maresca's men who are the big favourites to secure maximum spoils this week having won four league games on the spin.

Sheffield Wednesday team news

Sheffield Wednesday's injury concerns have worsened this week with the news that star frontman Callum Paterson will likely miss the next 10 weeks of action after undergoing surgery on his knee.

Manager Danny Rohl confirmed the news in his pre-match press conference, saying: “Pato had a knee operation, so it’s difficult to say. It could be April, it’s long term. 

"In our situation we need everybody, and Callum is an experienced guy with fighting relegation, but this is what we cannot change. We have to move forward with the injuries.”

Paterson joins the likes of Josh Windass, John Buckley and Dominic Iorfa on the treatment table with the trio also set to miss out on Tuesday's match.
