Wigan look to rebound after a heavy 3-0 defeat to Reading, but injuries continue to trouble them, with Hunt, Rogers, and Trevitt all sidelined. As Wigan and Leyton seem to be evenly matched, we predict a 1-1 draw. Despite the aforementioned setback, the Latics remain strong at home, winning 80% of their recent matches at the DW Stadium and keeping clean sheets in 80% of those games. However, their attack has been inconsistent, scoring just 1.20 goals per home match, which could be a factor against a disciplined opponent.
Leyton Orient, meanwhile, are in far better form, having taken 10 points from their last five and drawing 0-0 with Exeter despite losing defender Sean Clara to a knock. Their away performances have been impressive, averaging 1.83 points per game and conceding only 1.00 goal on the road. The O's also come into this fixture with four wins in their last five overall.
Although the H2H history is limited, Leyton hold a slight edge with 2 wins from 5, and recent trends suggest a tighter, low-scoring battle than their season averages. As Wigan home matches rarely open up, we are tempted to bet on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw, and Draw.
This League 1 match will be played on Thursday 2 April 2026 at 19:45.
