Draw no Bet – Accrington
Here we pick Accrington in the Draw no Bet market because they are the favorite of the two, and the head-to-head statistics show us that there haven't previously been draws between these two sides. In fact, the clubs have only faced-off twice before and have both gotten a single win for their efforts.
BTTS – Yes
Both squads are capable of finding the net, so it’s only a matter of whether they can keep a clean sheet. Accrington has only failed to score in 2 of its last 10 games, and the numbers are the same for Wigan. Also, Wigan concedes more than they score (38:61) and with Accrington, it's about right down the middle (46:43).
Over 2.5 Goals
The previous 2 meetings between these two, have resulted in 11 goals in total. Furthermore, this pick has hit in most of the clubs’ previous matches – 4/5 times for Accrington and 2/5 times for Wigan. Also, the odds of 20/23 provide a decent payout for the risk you take.

Accrington Stanley vs Wigan: Two bottom-half teams – any reason for optimism?
Sitting in the middle of the table it seems like Accrington Stanley has nothing to fight for in this campaign. However, this is not true, as Accy has a shot at reaching the top 6 and qualifying for the play-offs. With a gap of just 5 points, Stanley needs a few final efforts to break into the top 6.
On the other hand, Wigan is facing a completely different fight. Sitting a single point away from the relegation zone, and just 3 points from the bottom of the table, the Tics need the three points as much as Accrington does. This will be a great fight between the two, which may as well shape both the relegation and the promotion zones.
Stanley will be looking to put an end to a 3-game losing streak, while Wigan has had 2 wins and a draw in their last 3 games. The fixture can go either way, however, Accrington has the upper-hand and the greater shot at victory.
