Our football match prediction:
It has been two months since Preston recorded their last win in the Championship. The Lilywhites defeated QPR in the opening match of the season, but they have been struggling in the English second tier ever since. Preston were on the verge of beating Aston Villa at the weekend, but the Villans eventually scored a late equalizer and picked up one point from the match. Anyhow, Preston showed character in the midweek fixture and seeing that they are eager to return to winning ways, we predict that they are going to beat Wigan Athletic at their Deepdale Stadium on Matchday 12. The Latics, on the other hand, failed to score in previous two league games and, taking everything into account, we believe that they are going to return home empty-handed. In their last meeting in Preston the Lilywhites emerged triumphant, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.

Highlighted Team (Wigan Athletic):

Wigan Athletic are one of the winners of the English FA Cup. The Latics won the prestigious trophy in 2013, with the team upsetting Manchester City in the title game. This is considered the club’s biggest success, but it has to be noted that Wigan played in the UEFA Europa League in the 2013/2014 season. Wigan have been playing their home games at the DW Stadium since 1999 and they had played at Springfield Park in the past. Chorley are considered Wigan’s fierce rivals, but the two teams last met in 1971, when they competed in the Northern Premier League. The likes of Preston North End, Bury, Oldham Athletic, Burnley and Blackburn Rovers are regarded as Wigan Athletic’s rivals as well. The club was founded in 1932 and they competed in the English Premier League from 2005 to 2013. The colour of Wigan’s home kit is blue and white (stripes).
