Prediction: 1-0
Peterborough
Wigan and Peterborough go head to head at The Brick Community Stadium in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program. The Latics outplayed Northampton 3-1 in their first home game of the season, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Peterborough’s visit. Bear in mind, though, that talented midfielder Isaac Mabaya is unlikely to feature in Saturday’s clash after picking up a knock in the EFL Cup win over Notts County.
The Posh, on the other hand, have been beaten by Wigan Athletic in each of the previous two meetings between the two sides at “The Brick Community” and given their three-game losing run in all competitions, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. In their last encounter at the venue, Wigan Athletic rolled over Peterborough 3-0. Midfielder Carl Johnston is sidelined with injury for the visiting side.
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).
