Wigan Athletic Sheffield Wednesday betting prediction
 Wigan |
|  Sheff Wed |
Betting suggestion:
This game places within the four lines two teams that have different squads, however, it is expected that the away side dominate the whole game and enjoy the best opportunities to score goals. On the other hand, Wigan Athletic should enter the field with a more defensive strategy, exploring only the counterattack. Having said this, betting on the double possibility of the away team is an excellent option.

Analysis Sheff Wed
The away team makes its debut in this edition of the competition, after having finished 15th last season. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got a home loss against Villarreal by (1‑3). In the last 10 away matches Sheffield Wednesday has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.
The Sheffield Wednesday team made a reasonable championship last year, finishing 15th in the standings, far from the relegation zone. It is worth mentioning that the team arrives in this game with two straight defeats against Mansfield and Villarreal. Usually coach Jos Luhukay plays in 3-4-3, benefiting ball possession and paused attacks, however in some moments of the clash he should play on in counter-attack. Fernando Forestieri has been the great highlight in the last years, being this very fast and strong athlete in the counterattack. Finishing is also one of the strengths of the Italian-Argentine player. For this game the coach can not count on the injured Hutchinson.
