Why Sheffield Wednesday’s Lewis Gibson was missing from the Owls squad against Accrington Stanley UK News

Moore, who made three changes to the side that beat Cambridge United 6-0 at the weekend, told the media after the game he didn’t want to risk the centre-back – but admitted they didn’t know not yet how long he faces on the sidelines.

The Owls boss said: “It’s too early to tell with him but Lewis got a knock so was unavailable tonight… Hopefully in the next 24 hours what the extent of his injury will be.

“We don’t think it’s similar to what he had before, we just think with him coming back after a while away, when you play a few games like this you sometimes notice little issues. It’s really just a small worry, but I didn’t want to risk it tonight because he felt a little bad.

Wednesday’s next game will see them make the long journey to Gillingham this weekend, and it certainly looks like their loanee defender will miss out again as they look to try and climb back into the Play-Offs after missing their chance. . at S6 tonight.

They are currently seventh with one game fewer on sixth-placed Sunderland.
