Wigan Athletic desperately need points on Saturday, May 8 at 1:30 PM in the League 1. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Wigan Athletic come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Burton Albion, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Wigan Athletic head into this on the back of a defeat, while Burton Albion arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

In 10 previous meetings, Wigan Athletic lead 4–2 with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Burton Albion won 0–2.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Wigan Athletic a slight edge, but Burton Albion are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
