Wigan Athletic desperately need points on Saturday, Jan 16 at 4:00 PM in the League 1. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.
Reading come into this fixture in good form (3W 1D 1L recently). Wigan Athletic travel struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Reading here — they've won 7 of 10 previous meetings against Wigan Athletic, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Reading won 3–0.
Verdict: Reading look the stronger side on current evidence. Expect them to control proceedings at home, though Wigan Athletic will make it uncomfortable. Reading to win.
