On Sunday, at 14:00, Wigan Athletic and Nottingham Forest meet in the 12th round of the Championship, the second league of England. The guests come after a good series of results and have only one failure in the last five official matches: 0-5 with Arsenal, in the English League Cup.
Wigan comes after failures with Fulham (0-2) and Sheffield Wednesday (0-1) in the championship, but the white-blue team is redeemable on their own ground, where they defeated Charlton (2-0) in the final stages and Birmingham (1-0). Instead, Nottingham impressed in matches with Barnsley (1-0), Stoke City (3-2) and Brentford (1-0), and the Reds are candidates for promotion.
Costel Pantilimon’s team (announced the reserve) is on the 2nd place in the standings (16-9 goal), with one of the best defenses in the league. On the opposite side, Wigan is in 19th place (9-16) and has a tough fight in the relegation zone. This is why the guests are favored to get a good result, having 3 consecutive straight duels without defeat with Wigan. Last season, Nottingham won 3-1 at home and drew, 2-2, away.
The guests have the complete lot, and from Wigan only Jacobs and Pearce are missing, injured. There are two regular groups that meet often in the last quarter of an hour, so our bet will take into account this statistic. We bet on an open game at DW Stadium!
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1,79
