Wigan Athletic form and stats

Wigan Athletic's results here at DW Stadium in the League One have been very modest with 2 victories, 4 draws and 10 defeats. With eight home League One games in a row without a win, the Wigan Athletic fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Accrington Stanley game long ago, can be stopped today.

The Wigan fans got no joy from their last match, a League One game also here at DW Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Charlton Athletic (placed 9th). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Peterborough United (1-2).

The manager L. Richardson will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Plymouth Argyle in only three days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Wigan Athletic here at DW Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (15 from 16 games). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Wigan are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (35 from 16 played).

A new game in only three days for Milton, the League One home match versus Blackpool. Busy days.
