Wigan Athletic, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to Wycombe Wanderers will not have sat easily with the Wigan Athletic squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and when playing at home this season, they've notched up 9 clean sheets in 19 games.
Blackpool, Recent FormBlackpool will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their away outing against Northampton Town.
Manager Neil Critchley will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 9 goals. They're currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets, but playing away from home this season, they have failed to score in 9 of their 19 games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Away from home in the league, Karamoko Dembélé has given the Blackpool travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Blackpool that came out on top with a 2-1 win.
The Seasiders will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Wigan, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 7 meetings between the two.

Playing at home, Wigan have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Blackpool.
Blackpool has won the last 2 games they've played against Wigan in the league.
