History of the Sheffield Wednesday v Bristol City fixture

Bristol City pack their bags to visit Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough at lunchtime on Saturday, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 15 out of 22 times.

The previous match played between the two at Hillsborough was within the last three years, in May 2005, with Bristol City inflicting a narrow 2 - 3 defeat upon the The Owls in a League One match.
