Luton – Wigan

Luton host Wigan in what promises to be a decisive clash for both sides as the season edges towards its climax. Sitting twelfth with eight points from six games – two wins, two draws and two defeats – the Hatters have a narrow negative goal difference of –1, having scored twelve and conceded thirteen. Wigan, languishing at the foot of the table in twenty‑third place, have managed only four points, their solitary win and draw offset by four losses and a –6 goal deficit after netting five and letting in eleven. The disparity in form suggests Luton will look to consolidate their mid‑table position, while Wigan will be desperate for a rare victory to lift them away from the relegation zone. Both teams will be keen to improve their records before the final stretch of fixtures begins.
