Wigan vs Sunderland: Form, Recent Games, and News

Wigan Preview

It took a while but Wigan are finally back in the second tier of football in England but their chances to remain in the Championship are not the best. The team has had serious struggles since the start of the season and is currently sitting in the relegation zone again. They have one of the weaker attacks in the league but also the absolute worst defense in the league.

Sunderland Preview

Sunderland are another team that got promoted to the Championship at the start of this campaign and we definitely did not expect them to be this good this season. They are one win away from the playoff zone and their current form is incredible – the team has three wins in the last five games and just a single defeat. Their attack is one of the best so as long as they improve defensively, they have a chance.
