Crawley
Out-of-sorts Wigan Athletic will look to put an end to their dreadful losing run when they take on Crawley Town in the League One round 3. The Latics have been struggling to find their form at the start of the season, but Saturday’s clash could be the turning point for Shaun Maloney’s troops. Fit-again forward Callum McManaman is pushing for his first start of the season, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Red Devils, on the other hand, made a promising start to the season, with the team beating both Blackpool and Cambridge United, but they do not want to stop now. However, home win should be considered as the struggling hosts want this triumph more than the visitors. Scott Lindsey is going to field the best possible side this time out after resting several first-team regulars in the EFL Trophy win over Brighton U21 on Tuesday evening.
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).
