Our prediction for this Championship match:
Wigan Athletic will be looking to bounce back from a massive 5-1 loss to Burnley when they face WBA in the Championship round 7. The start to the season has been a mixed bag for the Baggies, with the team losing to Blackburn, beating Hull City, while sharing the spoils with the likes of Watford, Cardiff City, and Huddersfield. Daryl Dike remains in the recovery room, while Callum Robinson is widely expected to replace Karlan Grant in the starting XI.
The Latics, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-1 loss to Burnley, which is probably the main reason why we are going to put our money on WBA, who aim to move closer to automatic promotion places. The likes of Ben Amos, Jordan Cousins, and Gwion Edwards are sidelined with injuries for the home team, while Ashley Fletcher will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
