Prediction: 1-0
Wigan
One Call Stadium will be the centre of attention when Mansfield Town and Wigan Athletic lock horns in the FA Cup round 3. The Yellows aim to build on back-to-back wins over Bolton and Stockport County and they are surely capable of matching the Latics in front of home fans. Wales forward Will Evans limped off with injury in the last League One game, with Aden Flint likely to step up.
The Latics, on the other hand, aim to recover from back-to-back defeats to Wrexham and Birmingham City. As Wigan Athletic experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the 3-0 loss to Birmingham, we are tempted to place our bets on the in-form hosts. There are no fresh injury concerns in the visiting team ahead of the trip to Nottinghamshire. When the two teams met in the League One three months ago, Mansfield recorded a 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic.
Highlighted Team (Mansfield):
Founded in 1897, Mansfield Town are a professional club that compete in the League 2, the English fourth tier. The Stags are well known for their yellow shirts and blue shorts, while the colour of their away kit is black. Field Mill is the club’s home ground, the stadium with the capacity of 9,186.
The venue was built back in 1861 and renovated in 1999. Chesterfield and Notts County are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals. Mansfield Town did well to win the Football League Trophy in 1986/1987 season, with the team beating Bristol City on penalties at Wembley Stadium.
