Sheffield Wednesday could be without Graham Kavanagh for their next two Championship matches.

The midfielder picked up a hamstring injury in Tuesday night's Steel City derby at Sheffield United.

He has already been ruled out of Monday's visit of Plymouth and faces a race to be fit to be involved in Wednesday's fight to avoid relegation.

Kavanagh has made 21 league appearances for Wednesday in two loan spells from Sunderland this season.
