Previous to that game, a FA Cup home match hosting Northampton Town in a game that was won 3-1.

Wigan Athletic form and stats

Wigan Athletic have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 18 points collected from 7 League One games. 6 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat is the record so far. Wigan Athletic has been amazing away for a time now, winning six in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Sunderland.

It's the second away game in a row for Wigan, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Solihull Moors (after extra-time) in the FA Cup last time out. Jason Kerr was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.5. The defender Kerr scored one goal and won 11 of 19 duels.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Shrewsbury Town in the EFL Trophy.

Wigan have another fixture away from home in just four days, a League One fixture against Plymouth Argyle. A back-breaking schedule for them!

Wigan create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 18 goals in 7 travels. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Wigan as they have only conceded 5 goals from these away games.
