Blackpool face a trip to Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Seasiders will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Championship match.
