Gary Megson reveals that new loan signing Michail Antonio is likely to be handed a debut in this afternoon's Steel City derby.

Sheffield Wednesday manager Gary Megson has said that he is ready to hand new loan signing Michail Antonio a debut in this afternoon's Steel City derby against Sheffield United.

Antonio joined the club on loan from Reading until the end of the season on Tuesday and Megson hopes he can make the difference in Sunday's match.

"Although Michail has played in the Championship, he hasn't been on as big a stage as this," said Megson.

"Then again neither had Ben Marshall, but he was the best player on the field at Bramall Lane in October. Hopefully Michail can do the same.

"Derbies are complete one-offs. They are a fantastic testimonial to this city in still being among the biggest games in the country."

Wednesday staged a late two-goal comeback in the reverse fixture at Brammall Lane to the delight of their fans and they will be hoping to impress in front of a sell-out Hillsborough crowd.
