Relegation battle: Wolves vs Wigan

Saturday, 5th November 2011 4:58pm
Wolverhampton Wanderers are sitting just outside the relegation and they play Wigan who are at the foot of the table.

This win is very crucial to both teams as both are desperate for wins after just securing two so far for the home team and just one for the away team in ten matches.

Wolves have won just one match at home and drawn one whilst Wigan are still to win away from the DW Stadium.

Wigan has so far collected a single point from its travels and a match against a team just three points away from them may offer the opportunity to improve on that.

Here are some of the stats for the two teams so far:
