Wigan Athletic, Recent FormA 0-0 draw against Blackburn Rovers will be viewed as a positive outcome for Wigan Athletic and a valuable point into the bargain. In that game they had 44% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Blackburn Rovers who had 9 attempts and 3 on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 4 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 15 goals in the same period. Shaun Maloney will be concerned about his leaky defence after they have failed to keep a clean sheet at home for 8 games in a row.
Wigan Athletic will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form at DW Stadium, they've lost their last 4 league games in a row there and not had a home win in 4 games.
Huddersfield Town, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Huddersfield Town and Blackpool in their last match, which ended in a 2-2 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Blackpool had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. 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 conceded at least 1 goal in 13 out of 14 away games this season, they are not making it easy for themselves to pick up valuable points on their travels.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Huddersfield Town, Josh Ruffels will be looking to add more goals against Wigan Athletic in this match.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Wigan Athletic that came out on top with a 1-2 win.
In the past 4 away matches at Wigan in the league, The Terriers have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters. The Huddersfield defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit The Latics in the league, with Huddersfield conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Playing at home, Wigan have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Huddersfield.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Wigan has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Huddersfield in 3 games.
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.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Huddersfield manager Mark Fotheringham with Tino Anjorin (Ankle), Duane Holmes (Calf), Pat Jones (Hamstring), Lee Nicholls (Shoulder), Kieran Phillips (Leg) and Danny Ward (Lack of fitness) all unavailable for selection, and Yuta Nakayama (Achilles tendon) out for the rest of the season.
