Wigan Athletic and Dave Whelan Stadium are set to welcome the Bolton Wanderers for an EPL football match on Wednesday. It hasn’t been a pretty season for either side as the Wanderers are in the red and could find themselves a league lower if they don’t shape up quickly while Wigan isn’t exactly in much better shape.

Bolton has just 22 points in 24 games played while Wigan has garnered 24 in 24 games.

While neither of these teams are playing for a championship, they are both playing to avoid relegation and there is plenty of importance on the line. Bolton, with a win, could leap frog Wigan and really turn the heat up for them but if Wigan can win, they can separate themselves from the pack a little bit and keep Bolton right where they are.

Bolton has been pathetic all season long and to expect them to win on the road is unlikely. At best, they are probably looking at a draw. As a matter of fact, a draw looks like a pretty good bet overall.

Between the two teams, they have 13 draws on the year. More importantly, the two teams have scored just two goals combined in their last three Premier League meetings.

Bolton has had plenty of scoring dysfunction of their own as they have just 29 on the year. Recently, they’ve been even worse as they have failed to score in any of their last three Premier League games and have won just once in their last eight games.

Wigan has had a tough time winning games of late, which further pushes this pick to a draw. Wigan Athletic has just one league win since the end of November

Both teams are struggling and both teams typically struggle to score goals. On top of that, both teams don’t want to give up any ground in the table, so they may play this one a little closer to the vest usual.

While the payout for a tie isn’t great, the play has to be either a tie or a Wigan win. Wigan hasn’t done much winning in the last three months so we’ll pass on that.
