Wigan Athletic, Recent FormThe Wigan Athletic squad will want to put the 4-1 home thrashing they received from Sunderland firmly behind them and may also need to find something to boost their confidence levels as a consequence. During that encounter they had 42% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 13 shots on goal.
Kolo Touré, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 14 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 6 goals scored. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games.
They've had a dismal run of form at DW Stadium recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 home games, their solitary win providing little consolation. They've shown terrible form at DW Stadium this season, losing 8 of their 13 home league games.
Will Keane will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Wigan Athletic.
Hull City, Recent FormHull City will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their away fixture against Birmingham City. They came away from that fixture with a 56% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Birmingham City, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Liam Rosenior will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. Having shipped at least a single goal in 21 of their 25 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Their unbeaten run away from home now sits at 6 games in a row.
On an individual basis, Regan Slater will be looking to cause Wigan Athletic some problems having scored 3 goals in Hull City's last 6 away games in the league.
