It is 0-0 at half time as Rochdale face Sheffield Wednesday at Spotland in the FA Cup this afternoon.
It took around 10 minutes for the match to settle down, and when it did Ardhe Nuhiu saw his right-footed shot blocked by the home defence.
Kieran Lee then had a similar effort as Wednesday began to see more of the ball.
The Owls continued to have the better of the attacking play and Caolan Lavery had a chance to give his side the lead, but he slipped around 15 yards from goal and Rochdale cleared.
Chris Maguire had a tame free kick saved, before Peter Vincenti's header went the wrong side of the upright. Michael Rose then put a free kick wide as the home side started to threaten.
Matt Done hit the target with his effort, but was unable to beat Damian Martinez as the first half reached its conclusion.
