Prediction: 1-1
Cambridge United
Wigan Athletic will be looking to steady their form when they welcome Cambridge United to the DW Stadium. The Latics have suffered a dip in form, leaving them in mid-table, but they remain a tough side to beat at home. Shaun Maloney’s men have no fresh injury concerns, though Matthew Smith, Joe Adams, and Luke Chambers remain in the treatment room.
Cambridge United, meanwhile, are desperate to escape the relegation zone, and they will take confidence from their past meetings with Wigan. The Yellows have struggled for consistency, but their recent performances suggest they can pose problems for the hosts. However, they will have to make do without Mamadou Jobe and George Thomas, who remain on the sidelines with injuries. Given Wigan’s anything but good form and Cambridge’s need for points, this could be a closely contested battle. Taking everything into account, we believe that both sides should be happy with one point from Saturday's encounter.
Highlighted Team (Wigan):
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).
