Follow live coverage as Leeds United 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.

The Owls were well in the game at Elland Road and a 3-0 defeat was rough on them on the balance of play. They caused the league leaders problems which made for an anxious atmosphere for the home side, who have lost just once on their own patch all season but their shortcomings in attack were apparent, with just one shot on target in the whole game.

Sheff Weds: Beadle (GK), Lowe, Bernard, Ingelsson (Johnson 54’), Bannan (C), Windass (Ugbo 79’), Ihiekwe (Valentin 71’), Valery, Gassama, Charles, Musaba (Paterson 79’). Subs not used: Charles (GK), Palmer, J. Lowe, Kobacki, Otegbayo.

Crisis, what crisis? Leeds boss Daniel Farke had given his full backing to goalkeeper Illan Meslier after he came under criticism for his mistakes in the 3-3 draw at Hull City in the Championship a fortnight ago.

Celtic emerged as a late suitor for Barry earlier this month, joining a host of Championship outfits interested in his signature. Among those second-tier admirers are Wednesday, with the Star first reporting in November that Hillsborough recruitment chiefs were keeping tabs on the 21-year-old’s impressive loan spell at Stockport County.
