Wanderers head to Hillsborough on Friday night to face the league leaders. The Whites will become the latest side to try and end Sheffield Wednesday's club ...

Bolton have a wonderful fluidity to their game, they play on the front foot and so do we. "The atmosphere will be electric. It bodes well for a good game. The Owls have lost just three times in the league this season and have won their last five games – including three successive 1-0 wins. I think when that happens we become dangerous. “I think everyone is writing us off.

Bolton Wanderers defender, Conor Bradley, has admitted that Sheffield Wednesday's current unbeaten run is 'pretty mad'.

We can’t wait for the challenge.” “We can just go into it and try and give it our best shot and as long as we stick together and keep going, we’ll come out of this tough spell and hopefully get back to winning ways. “It will maybe take a little bit of pressure off us,” Bradley said of the Owls clash.

Sheffield Wednesday defender, Ciaran Brennan, says that he's 'absolutely gutted' that his Swindon Town loan has been cut short.

[Darren Moore](/topic/darren-moore) has confirmed that he has now returned to Middlewood Road for his recovery, and he’ll be hoping to try and force his way into Wednesday’s plans for next season. He enjoyed his time in Wiltshire, though, and following his departure the Owls academy graduate took to Instagram to say, “Absolutely gutted with the way it’s ended with the shoulder, but I loved every minute of my time at Swindon.

In a bonus though, left-sided star Marvin Johnson will be back in contention after serving his three-game suspension. In Iorfa’s absence, there is a chance to shuffle things around. Sheffield Wednesday head into their Friday night clash with Bolton Wanderers looking to extend their club-record unbeaten run to 23 league games.

Sheffield Wednesday's winning streak is over, but their unbeaten run continues after a 1-1 draw with Bolton Wanderers.

But this Owls team can deal with pressure – and they managed to see things out once more. Half time rolled around quickly after that, and Moore was forced into a change. Their intensity was fantastic, closing down Bolton early, driving at them and causing all sorts of issues with a high press.

Sheffield Wednesday extend their club-record unbeaten league run to a 23rd game but are held to a home draw by Bolton.

WANDERERS might have rode their luck early on at Sheffield Wednesday – but they ended up fully deserving a steely point against League One's…

Wanderers had frequently looked to pit Charles one-on-one with Flint in a foot race, and an excellent ball from Eoin Toal did just that with 17 minutes left. Long throws, and the inevitable march of Flint, was a constant issue. Wednesday’s passing became looser, Bolton were a yard quicker to the ball and the frustration started to show as Dion Charles clashed with towering defender, Flint, just before the interval. But, encouraged by Adeboyejo’s 15th strike of the campaign, Bolton were suddenly looking more convincing in attack, too. Wednesday’s delivery from the wide positions was in a different league. The home side then took a firm hold of the game.

Disappointing result tonight but no complaints with the point." @ndunne76: "23 unbeaten not a bad point considering. @NeonBrown10: "Happily take a point there, especially after both forwards had to go off hobbling. @andymcelwaine: "Six points clear and a game in hand.

Wanderers secured a precious point against League One leaders Sheffield Wednesday, but what did fans have to say?

A point at Hillsborough well deserved in the end!— Lindsey Chesham (@lindzchesh) Onto Wembley with the rest of BL6. The forward has now scored twice since joining from Burton in the January window.

RICARDO SANTOS…9. Might just be his best game in a Bolton shirt, and there have been a few outstanding candidates. Had it not been for a scrappy first 10 ...

Buried an important goal – and that’s why he is in the team. Fouled for the penalty, pure and simple. Great ball for Charles in the penalty incident. Hard to predict all night. Worried for him in the first 20 minutes, then flipped a switch and really imposed himself. Struggled early on to get close to Bannan, or get himself on the ball, but then for the last hour he was the one driving things on.

Sheffield Wednesday were forced to substitute three key players against Bolton Wanderers, with Josh Windass leaving Hillsborough in a moonboot.

He said, “It’s a precaution because he took a knock on it - so until the medical team assess him in the morning you don’t want him doing anything more to it. As it stands here now I would hope that all three will be available for Tuesday.” I’m hopeful that all three will be available because they’re all knocks - like I say, Josh was in a boot as a precaution just in case.

Bolton Wanderers manager, Ian Evatt, praised his side's performance against Sheffield Wednesday – but felt that they should have had a penalty.

It would have been easy for the players to duck out after the first 10 minutes and conceding from a set-play. “I’m really proud of the lads. Lots to work on and kick on from.

[passed away at the age of 86 earlier this week](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football/news/sheffield-wednesday-legend-don-megson-26485263). Add in the unavailability of George Byers, Callum Paterson, Mallik Wilks, Ben Heneghan and Michael Ihiekwe and it leaves the squad desperately short of depth. It's a sad loss for his family, and for Sheffield Wednesday, and my thoughts are with them." Social media in particular was awash with backlash and unsavoury takes from all angles. It feels like a question of when the Owls will be toasting promotion, not if. Bolton bossed the ball - stats show the away side enjoyed 61 per cent of possession - but they found Wednesday to be far too resilient. He spent 11 seasons at Hillsborough. Reece James did not re-emerge for the second half while Josh Windass gingerly exited the game after an hour. [How we rated the Wednesday players in Bolton stalemate](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football/news/sheffield-wednesday-player-ratings-bolton-26501407) It wasn't a classic. [the Owls](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/sheffield-wednesday-fc) had by far the better chances to add to their tally in the second half but just couldn't find a way past a tough opponent.

[Bolton](/news/bolton/) deal is set to expire in the summer and he will be hoping to make an impact in the final stages of the campaign. The 25-year-old got himself in the right place to meet Gethin Jones’ clever cut-back and had a slight bit of luck with a deflection. Charles had managed to get in behind the Wednesday backline and went down in the box after tangling with Aden Flint.
