Prediction: 1-2
Blackburn Rovers
Wigan Athletic and Blackburn Rovers face each other at DW Stadium in a postponed Championship game. The Latics suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Hull (1-2) and Cardiff (1-3) in the previous two league fixtures, and they face yet another difficult task against the Riversiders. Nathan Broadhead is pushing for a start, with Charlie Wyke likely to drop to the bench, with Curtis Tilt and Tom Naylor eyeing recalls as well.
Blackburn, on the other hand, continue to rely on Chile international Ben Brereton Diaz, who scored a brace in a 3-0 crushing of Rotherham. Even though the Riversiders are not regarded as good travellers, we predict that they will take advantage of Wigan’s shaky defence. Jan Dahl Tomasson is unlikely to make changes to the team that outplayed the Millers at the weekend.

Jason Kerr is a professional footballer who plays for St Johnstone as a defender. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on February 6, 1997, Jason Kerr is a product of the St Johnstone football academy. He started his senior career in 2014, and after ending his loan spells with East Fife and Queen of the South, he returned to the McDiarmid Park outfit in 2018.
