Wigan Peer Towards Safety
We've reached the stage where crazy results in the Championship seem increasingly possible.
Remarkably Wigan Athletic have won their last four away matches to give themselves a fighting chance of survival and they are a best price 6/1 (PaddyPower) to continue that run at the Riverside Stadium.
The Latics rescued a point last time out against Bolton with a 94th minute overhead kick. That’s the sort of thing which makes a team believe and after 22 shots on goal (8 on target) the 2013 FA Cup winners deserved it.
Meanwhile, Middlesbrough’s promotion bid was having a significant derailing at Bournemouth. Aitor Karanka’s high flyers lost 3-0 and of their meagre 3 shots, none were on target.
It looked like a bad case of stage-fright at the wrong moment and Wigan could make a mockery of the league table and the odds on Good Friday.
