Blackburn Rovers Team News
Blackburn is an unbelievable team this season in English Championship. They have 14 wins and 13 defeats and they were in 6th place at the start of this weekend. Only five teams have more defeats than them and Blackburn is somehow in the top 6.
They are very inconsistent in recent weeks. They are three games without a win in all competitions but in the league, they have only two wins in the last eight games or three in the last 10.
Blackburn is struggling so much after the World Cup and only four teams are in worst form than them.
Even without that form and 13 defeats Blackburn is now 8th in the table with 43 points and 14 wins after 28 rounds. They are only a point behind 6th place WBA and only five points behind 3td place Middlesbrough.
Blackburn is also struggling with scoring goals. They scored only eight goals in the last 10 games and 31 goals this season. Only five teams in the league had scored less. They failed to score in 9 games, but only once at home. Away from home, they have too many problems with 11 scored goals.
In 15 games against the teams from the bottom half of the table, they have seven wins and seven defeats and you never know how they will play.
Wigan Athletic Team News
Wigan has so many troubles this season. They started the season very well and were in the middle of the table. But the injuries hit the team and they had eight defeats in 10 games before the World Cup. They slipped into the relegation zone and sacked their manager.
They appointed Kolo Toure during the World Cup but he doesn’t win a game in his first nine games in charge. Because of that, he is sacked, too. And last week Wigan appointed their 3rd manager this season Shaun Maloney. He will have a debut on Monday.
Wigan is in the 24th place in the table, in the relegation zone, with 25 points and 6 wins after 28 games. They are four points from the safe zone. Wigan is nine games without a win in all competitions and they have one win in the last 17 games.
They are seven games without a win in the league and have one win in the last 15. They are in the worst form in the league in short term and in long term.
An interesting fact is that Wigan has won more points away from home (16) than at DW Stadium (9). They scored more goals away from home and conceded less. They failed to score in only one away game this season.
With 27 goals scored they have the third-worst attack in the league and with 49 goals conceded the worst defence in the league.

Blackburn Rovers vs Wigan Athletic Prediction
Both teams are in terrible forms but Wigan is in a lot bigger mess than Blackburn. This is a little derby match between the two close rivals who are separated by 35 kilometres.
Wigan is a more dangerous away from home but we believe Blackburn will not lose this game and we don’t expect too many goals here.
Points are very important for both clubs – Blackburn wants to return to the top 6 and Wigan to close a gap to the safe zone.
