West Bromwich Albion Wigan Athletic betting prediction

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 2 draws and 12 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 16 conceded. In their last match, for the Championship, they got a home loss against Sheffield United by (0‑3). In the last 10 away matches Wigan Athletic has tied 2 and lost 8. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 15 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 12 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Wigan is a team that has once won the FA Cup once throughout its history, in the 2012/13 season, as well as having three League 1 titles and a second-place in the 2004/05 Championship. The team has been making a weak campaign in the Championship in the current season, having won only 26 of the 78 points played so far, thus being at the bottom of the table, near the relegation zone. In the last five games that Wigan played away from home, in addition to not winning none, in three of them the team suffered more than 1.5 goals. We believe that in this match Wigan again will have difficulties to play away from home and will end up registering a negative score.
