Sheffield Wednesday defender Max Lowe says Saturday's game against Cardiff City at Hillsborough is a "great opportunity" to start putting together a run of good form.

The Owls are 15th in the Championship, three points above the drop zone, but face five other sides from the bottom half of the table over their next seven matches.

"The discussion has been had, we know it's a great opportunity for us," Lowe told ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Radio Sheffield.

"I still think it's a little bit too early to look at the table but we know these are games we can win.

"In this league, if you put a run of 10 games of really good form and performances and the results come along, you know we will be up there in the table.

"So, we need to look at that and go into this run with full confidence."

Lowe joined Wednesday in the summer after four years at local rivals Sheffield United and says he's been "enjoying it since day one".

"I feel like I've learned every day under the manager and coaching staff," he added.

"The lads have been great with me as well. It might come as a surprise but even people like Marvin [Johnson], me and him play in the same position, but the first day I came in, he was helping me with how the gaffer wants us to play."

The 27-year-old has been utilised as a centre-back in recent weeks, as well as his usual left-back position, which he said is a new role for him but has "enjoyed learning it".

"I want to play every game I possibly can and I feel like now is a great opportunity for me to do that," he said.

"Whether it be at centre-back or left wing-back, I'm not bothered. As long as I'm on the pitch, I will give it my all.

"Hopefully we can get a run going now. We've got a lot of games at home and I think that will benefit us."
