Wigan vs Accrington
England – League One
Date: Tuesday, 5 April 2022
Kick-off at 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
Venue: DW Stadium.
With only a single less than the table leaders Rotherham, Wigan will be facing Accrington Stanley who are on the back of two consecutive league losses. They go h2h this Tuesday at DW Stadium.
The Latics with strong consistency, managed to occupy the second spot of the table. In the area of promotion to Championship, they won 24 times in the league while drawing on 7 which gave them 79 points so far. They have an impressive attacking and defensive lineup.
Wigan recorded a 4-1 win against Morecambe at home in their recent league fixture to wove a thread of 5 subsequent unbeaten schedules. Fewer than three goals per match were scored during 5 of the last 6 meetings where the home side have taken part.
On the contrary, Accrington sits 13th on the table with a total of 50 points. They are well clear from the relegation spot as well as the promotion zone. They are having a seesaw of form in the league as they won 14 games while losing on 17 others thus far.
Accrington recorded a 1-2 defeat at home in their recent league fixture. With that defeat, they are now following 3 subsequent winless games in the league. Demonstrating their partiality to action-packed encounters, goals have been scored 21 times in their previous 6 matches, making it an average of 3.5 goals for each fixture.
Wigan won the last 3 home game in a row in League One and remain unbeaten in 78% of the games played at home this season. They have scored two or more goals in 6 of the past 10 home league affairs.
Accrington lost 6 of their last 7 away games played in the league. They have never won an away game since last November.
We envisage a home win to happen this Tuesday as the visitors won only thrice of the 19 away games played this season. Moreover, the hosts are on the back of 5-game unbeaten run.
