Last Game: Swansea 3-0 Northampton
Tuesday, August 8 at 7.30pm in EFL Cup

We said: Wigan Athletic 1-2 Northampton Town

While Wigan did suffer a somewhat unexpected defeat in midweek, we expect that they will bounce back with a solid performance in this one. The hosts have looked poor over their past two matches this season, and while we feel they will get on the scoresheet, the visitors should outscore them by the final whistle. Read more.
