Wigan – Charlton preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Wigan vs Charlton lineups.
Wigan
Wigan made it 3 consecutive 2-0 wins on Saturday when easily dispatching ten-men Shrewsbury. Humphrys scored again to break the deadlock and once the numerical advantage was received it got easy.
After a rough period, Wigan are in a good mood again as their 3 consecutive wins helped them to exit the relegation zone.
The main improvement continues to be in defence with all of the 3 clean sheets registered in the last 3 rounds deserved ones.
Defender Kerr and inner midfielder Smith are still sidelined. The main wing-back Sessegnon also could miss as he got hurt in the last match.
Predicted Lineup:
Tickle (GK), Clare, Hughes, Morrison, McManaman, Adeeko, Shaw, Jones, Humphrys, Wyke & Magennis
Charlton
Charlton suffered its second consecutive defeat on Saturday. The Addicks played poorly when hosting Bolton and this led to a logical 0-2 loss. Once again the inability to defend set pieces brought trouble.
Charlton have been struggling defensively all season and they now conceded 2 or more goals in 4 of their last 5 matches. The recent issues in defence can be directly linked to the serious injury sustained in September by the main goalie Isted. He remains out and his understudy Maynard-Brewer had been very shaky when asked to deal with crosses.
Striker Aneke and the important inner midfielder Taylor are the other long-term absentees. Full-back Edun was also out for several weeks but he trains again and might be fit enough for the bench.
Predicted Lineup:
Maynard-Brewer (GK), T. Watson, Jones, Hector, Thomas, Dobson, Camara, Leaburn, Campbell, Blackett-Taylor & May
Starting Lineups
The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.
Player to Watch: Stephen Humphrys
Wigan’s in-form striker Stephen Humphrys is one of the main reasons why Athletic got their season back on track. Humphrys scored in the last 2 rounds to help Wigan to the win. He also scored in all of the last 3 home games so backing him now to shine again seems logical.
