Wigan vs Millwall Match Preview

Wigan made it back-to-back draws (both of which finished in the same 2-2 scoreline) last time out as they were twice pegged back by Cardiff.  The Lancashire outfit are three without a victory but find themselves just one place and three points from 21st and safety.

At the DW Stadium, the Latics have struggled managing just one victory in their last ten with four of these finishing all-square.  Each of the last three and seven of the last eight played here in the league have seen both teams net.

Millwall put their four-game league (five in all competitions) winless run behind them last weekend with a 1-0 victory at Preston.   They sit tenth in the Championship table four places and four points off the play-off spots.

Away from the Den, the Lions have lost just one of their last nine games with four of these having finished all-square.  Three of their last four matches the London side have played on road in the league have gone under 1.5 goals.

The prices on here look a reasonable reflection of two sides who are only seperated by seven points but weighting given for home advantage.  With no value to be found in the full-time result market it will pay to look elsewhere for the bets.

Bookmakers are having trouble splitting the pair with both sides available to be backed at around a similar price.  Of the three options we would lean towards the visitors but the price is just a little bit short on a side who lack a prolific goal threat to edge these tight games.

A better angle of attack is with both sides in need of the points to take the game to be level at half-time as has been the case in ten of 17 on the road for Millwall this season.  In a combined 33 matches (16 at home for Wigan and 17 on the road for Millwall) these two sides have seen a total of just 24 goals before the interval so backing the game to be level at half-time and expanding it to being goalless makes sense.
