Wigan vs Stevenage Prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - 24 September 2024
Wigan
Stevenage
On September 24, JJB Stadium will host the match of the 5th round of the English League 1, in which Wigan will play against Stevenage. Compiled an exclusive prediction from the experts of Dailysports.
“Wigan”
The team was at its peak a dozen years ago, when even the FA Cup was taken and decently quoted in the Premier League. But then “latics” did not even give up - they simply collapsed, eventually ending up two divisions lower, in League 1. And already there are not particularly distinguished. So, last season brought only twelfth place.
Now Shaun Maloney's wards do not show much progress. From the League Cup immediately fell out, losing at home to Barnsley on penalties. In the championship they started with a couple of defeats, but then beat Crawley and Bristol Rovers, but nothing against Birmingham. They finished with a nil draw against Lincoln.
“Stevenage"
The club was founded in the mid-70s and only a year later will celebrate half a century since its creation. So it's no surprise that in the big British grid, Boro have so far recorded a couple of wins in the Football League Trophy and promotion to League 1. Having risen there in 2023, it turned out to take a high ninth place from the start.
Now the results of Alex Revell's wards are more modest. Moreover, after 1-0 in the opening round with “Shrewsbury” they immediately fell out of the League Cup (3-4 with “Norwich”) and scored only one point in three rounds of the championship. But after a break, in September, they defeated 3-0 Barnsley. But lost 0-2 to Exeter.
