Manchester United travel to Wigan on Monday, when they pair of them go toe-to-toe at DW Stadium in a exciting FA Cup encounter.

Wigan have their target aimed at getting one over Manchester United on Monday, but the latter are highly motivated of showing their skills in front of the crowd at DW Stadium.

Wigan go into their next FA Cup match, scoring a humble average of 1.4 per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane 14 times, while conceding 12. That amounts to an average of 1.2 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring three times.

The Red Devils scored 17 goals, conceded ten and kept their opponents from scoring three times in their last ten matches.

The last time these two teams squared up, Manchester United ran out 4-0 winners which they surely won't mind doing again at DW Stadium.
