Betting on Wigan Athletic
Wigan Athletic‘s current situation is a nightmare. The local team is at the bottom of the Championship table with 31 points and with a very high probability of being relegated to EFL One, the third division of English soccer.
In their last match, Shaun Maloney’s team suffered a difficult away defeat against Preston North End by a score of 2-1. This situation made evident the need of having to make a new series of changes if they want to dream of returning to winning ways. To make matters worse for the locals, they haven’t been able to win since February 11 when they defeated Huddersfield Town.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Ben Amos; Charlie Hughes, Jack Whatmough, Ryan Nyambe; Christ Tiéhi, Max Power, Tendayi Darikwa, James McClean; Callum Lang, Will Keane, Ashley Fletcher.
Birmingham City Preview
On the other hand, although Birmingham City’s present is not the best either, they are in a better state of mind. The Blues are in 19th place in the Championship table with 38 points. Even so, despite being in a better position than their opponents, the team led by John Eustace is coming off back-to-back losses with a total of four consecutive defeats. The last of these was at home by the minimum difference against Luton Town.
It is also worth mentioning that the last time this Saturday’s visitors were able to find victory was last February 10, defeating West Brom by a score of 2-0.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): John Ruddy; Maxime Colin, Harlee Dean, Kevin Long, Emmanuel Longelo; Hannibal Mejbri, Gary Gardner, George Hall, Tahith Chong; Scott Hogan, Lukas Jutkiewicz.
JefeBet Prediction
If there is one thing that does Wigan Athletic good in terms of previous statistics, it is that their last 9 home games played against Birmingham City ended in victories. In addition, at home, The Tree is up on goal difference by 13-9 over the Blues. Statistics that they will seek to enforce this weekend.
According to the latest analysis, the home team’s performance this Saturday was much better than that of their opponents. So this weekend they will have the right conditions to get back to winning ways after almost a month of drought.
Prediction: Wigan Athletic win (WIG 2-1 BIR).
