PULL on the gloves and get ready for a showdown between two guys who are truly punching their weight in their position this season.
Keepers Nik Michopoulos, of Burnley, and the Owls' Kevin Pressman will be rejoicing in their form this term.
The clubs have had differing fortunes as the Clarets fight for promotion and Wednesday look to beat the drop, but both 31-year-old Greek international Michopoulos and 34-year-old player-coach Pressman have both recorded nine cleansheets this term.
While Michopoulos has become a permanent feature for the Clarets since his signing from PAOK Salonika in August 2000, long-serving Pressman seemed to destined to be looking for employment away from the Owlerton district of Sheffield earlier this season until a recall -- and a promotion on the coaching front.
Both are in-form and could hold the key to a clash that may prove tighter than the respective positions in the Division One table suggests.
