Stockport County vs Wigan PREDICTION & BETTING TIPS - 05/10/2024

Stockport County will look to build on a 2-0 win over Shrewsbury Town when they host Wigan Athletic at Edgeley Park. The Hatters have been in solid form of late, and the return of Louie Barry from illness adds a boost to their attack. However, they will miss influential midfielder Will Collar due to injury, which could impact their creativity in the middle of the park.

Wigan Athletic, head into the match following a 3-0 victory over Peterborough, have been inconsistent on the road, making it difficult to predict how they’ll perform away from home. With key players Steven Sessegnon and Tyrese Francois sidelined and Will Aimson a major doubt, Wigan's defense could be vulnerable. Given Stockport's strong home form and Wigan’s mixed away results, a closely contested match seems likely. While both sides have the quality to win, the circumstances point towards a balanced affair, and a draw could be on the cards as both teams may cancel each other out. Taking everything into account, a close encounter is on the horizon.
