Follow live coverage as Stoke City face Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship today. An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.

Stoke City boss Mark Robins said his side were good value for their 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday. The Potters moved up to 50 points and have now won three of their past five games. "We've still got three games to go and we still want to finish the season strongly," he told BBC Radio Stoke.

The 2024-25 campaign was largely an improved one for Sheffield Wednesday, who sat in the playoff race on 45 points from 32 games in mid-February, but they have dropped out of the bottom half in disappointing fashion since, adding just eight more points to that tally in 10 further attempts.
