Wigan Athletic, Recent FormWigan Athletic manager Shaun Maloney will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Cheltenham Town.
He will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 10 goals they managed at the other end. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 11 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
Thelo Aasgaard will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Wigan Athletic.
Bolton Wanderers, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 4-1 away defeat by Blackpool, Bolton Wanderers manager Ian Evatt will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 10 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Bolton will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Goalscorer Paris Maghoma will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Bolton Wanderers.
After a good 0-4 win for Wigan Athletic in this pair's last league encounter, Bolton Wanderers will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Wigan will be confident of finding the net in this one against The Trotters, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 13 encounters between the two sides. In the previous 5 matches between these sides, The Latics have shown they know their way around the Bolton defence having scored 15 times against them in those 5 matches.
Bolton has had a poor run of results against Wigan having not won any of their last 6 meetings.
There is only really one injury concern for the Wigan manager Shaun Maloney ahead of this clash, with Jason Kerr (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Maloney a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Bolton manager Ian Evatt has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
