Wigan vs AFC Wimbledon Predictions

• Wimbledon are on a 16-match winless run
• Wigan have lost one of their last six matches
• Wigan won the reverse fixture 2-0 at Plough Lane in October

Wigan have bounced back from minor blip

Wigan finished January and began February fairly slowly. A four-match winless run over this period gave Latics’ fans something to think about, as before this minor blip promotion looked a formality. Wigan bounced haven’t quickly put that run behind them and have lost one of their last six since. Leam Richardson has been doing a fabulous job at Wigan, initially taking over in tricky circumstances and a adding a promotion to his CV this early in his managerial career would be fully deserved. 

Hapless Dons’ set to leave empty handed  

Wimbledon simply must start winning games of football if they are to avoid the drop this season. The Dons are currently on a 16-match winless run, they have drawn nine games in this period which has been just about good enough to keep there’s above water for the time being. Wimbledon currently sit in 20^th and this dreadful run has seen a few the teams in the bottom four close the gap – Wimbledon are now just two points above the drop zone.

I fully expect a Wigan win on Saturday and for The Latics to extend Wimbledon’s winless run to 17 games. The main selection for this one will be Wigan -1 handicap; I fancy Wigan to win this one by at least two goals just as they did at Plough Lane in October. The correct score prediction for this game will be a 3-0 home win.
