Sheffield Wednesday fans are positive about their team facing Aston Villa after Jordan Rhodes was announced to be starting for another game.
The Owls stopped their bad run of form during the week by beating Millwall, with Jordan Rhodes getting a goal in that game. After being a big name signing in January, he has underwhelmed but it appears he might finally get back to the form that made him such a hit at Huddersfield Town and Blackburn Rovers after hitting the back of the net on Sunday.
Rhodes will be given another chance to get on the score sheet as he once again starts today. This will be a tougher match against an in-form Aston Villa, but another goal here will dispell fans fears that he is a big money flop signing.

The only change to the line-up from Tuesday’s win is that Liam Palmer and has been dropped and replaced by Jack Hunt, a disappointment for a player that did well in that match. Also noteworthy is that Kieran Lee has been dropped from the matchday squad. Current reports say this is due to an injury and that he will undergo a scan to see how serious it is. He has been replaced by Almen Abdi who also has a point to prove about not being a flop.
Even though many fans have been disappointed and even angry at recent results, not many are complaing about the team set to be fielded today.

#swfc What changes would you realistically make to todays #swfc team? Apart from better rotation of forwards pace on right wing for me
