Wigan to pile more misery on relegated Swindon
This game is a tough one to make a prediction for with Wigan safe and the bottom four already confirmed. Swindon are one of the sides heading down. Will those factors change how the game unfolds? We say not and back Wigan to collect another three points as they aim to finish the season strongly. Yes, Wigan lost last time out but it was against Hull; prior to that they'd won five and drawn one of their last six. Swindon have just been poor; they've lost seven of their last eight.
Swindon to score solitary strike
The first prediction we've made references a woeful run of Swindon form. That doesn't mean they can't score goals though. In their last five away from home four have ended with Swindon scoring just a solitary goal. Wigan have conceded one in three of their last five at home. As tips for total team goals go, this one comes pretty well backed up by by statistics.
Wigan to net at least twice
So far in our predictions we've backed Wigan to win and Swindon to score once. Here we say Wigan will net at least twice. They've managed to achieve that feat in four of their last six matches. Swindon have shipped two or more goals in seven of their last 10 away games including in their last four games.
