The Owls will be looking to leverage their home advantage to secure a victory this Friday. No doubt manager, Danny Röhl will have prepared a strategic approach to exploit Coventry City's weaknesses in defense, giving Josh Windass the freedom to roam. 

On the other side, Coventry City, known for their resilience and attacking prowess, will enter the game looking to make it to the fifth round of the FA Cup after failing to proceed in their last five attempts. The Sky Blues, who are currently sixth in the Championship,  could make it five straight wins in a row in all competitions. 

Coventry boss Mark Robin will need to striker Matt Godden to be on form and ready to add to his already impressive nine-goal season. Can they make through to the final 16?

Watch Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry from abroad

Watch Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry live streams from anywhere

Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry live streams will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and want to watch it on your usual service?

The answer is to use a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN will let you tune into your home coverage from wherever you are — meaning that if you're abroad, you can use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live as if you were in your own home.

Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can check it out without having to sign up long-term.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to ESPN Plus or another service and watch the game.
