Wigan enter this game on the back of a 1-0 win over Notts County in the EFL Cup. This victory helped them put their league defeat behind them as they prepare to make it two wins from two matches. However, Wigan remain without a clean sheet in League One, having conceded three goals in their opening two matches. After shutting out Notts County in midweek, the hosts will be eager to replicate that defensive performance.
Meanwhile, Peterborough United continue to struggle as they recorded their third straight defeat, losing 2-1 to Accrington in the EFL Cup. That result meant they have now conceded two goals in each of their last three games. Defensive issues remain a major concern, and they will be desperate to halt this poor run. The atmosphere around the club is tense, with fans demanding their first win of the season.
We tip Wigan to win because they are in better form compared to Peterborough Utd. Also, Wigan have won three of the last four head-to-head meetings between the two teams, and we expect them to extend this run.
We expect both teams to score because this occurred in seven of Wigan’s last nine matches and in four of Peterborough Utd’s last five games, highlighting both sides’ attacking strengths and occasional defensive lapses in recent fixtures.
We anticipate over 2.5 goals because the last five head-to-head meetings between the two sides averaged three goals per game, while Peterborough Utd’s last six matches averaged 3.3 goals per game, suggesting an open contest with numerous scoring chances likely to emerge.
Wigan head into this match after a 1-0 EFL Cup win over Notts County, looking to build momentum and secure back-to-back victories. They have yet to keep a clean sheet in the league but will be confident after their midweek shutout.
Peterborough, meanwhile, are under pressure following three straight defeats and a run of conceding two goals in each of their last three matches.
Wigan are slight favourites given their better form and recent head-to-head record. Both teams are likely to score, and recent trends point towards over 2.5 goals in what could be an open contest.
