Wigan vs Reading Prediction
Their last three matches saw Wigan drawing 1-1 with West Bromwich, before taking out Luton by 1-2, and Huddersfield by 1-2. Wigan claimed just a single measly home win from a possible six in the Championship, which also saw them drawing four and losing one matches, in which they scored 12 and conceded eight goals.
Few people had high hopes on behalf of Wigan before the season, but current form sees them punching above expectations.
Reading are inconsistent at the moment with two defeats and a win to show from their last three matches. They lost 4-0 againstSheffield United, won 2-1 against Stoke, before dropping points again in a 0-3 defeat against Sunderland. Reading only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Championship. In these six matches they drew zero and lost five as well as being outscored by 13 goals to one.
Few would have predicted Reading to perform as well as they done silencing talk of relegation with nice performances.
The crowd usually get a very entertaining encounter, when Wigan face Reading, and we see no reason for this to end this coming Saturday. The value bet lies with goals.
