Sheffield United vs Wigan Athletic match preview
Two sides sitting at opposite ends of the Championship table are set to lock horns at Bramall Lane this Friday, April 7th.
The matchup in question will see Sheffield United act as hosts, in a meeting with Wigan Athletic.
Beginning with the former, Sheffield United have enjoyed a timely return to form over the course of recent weeks.
After sparking concern owing to a run of four league defeats in six, the Blades have since responded by way of a trio of successive victories across all competitions.
First, a trip to the Stadium of Light saw Paul Heckingbottom’s troops recover from a goal down, en route to an eventual 2-1 downing of Sunderland.
Then, after sending Blackburn packing from the FA Cup to book their spot in the competition’s semi-finals, United visited Carrow Road.
Such efforts, coupled with a surprise Middlesbrough defeat last time out, have seen Heckingbottom and co. edge ever closer to a return to the top-flight, now sitting six points clear of the chasing pack in 2nd, whilst in possession of a game in hand.
Safe to say, then, that upcoming opponents Wigan Athletic will have their work very much cut out for them on Friday evening.
The Latics, for their part, remain in the thick of the battle against relegation from the Championship.
As things stand, they sit dead bottom of England’s 2nd tier, with just eight wins on the board from 39 attempts.
To the credit of Shaun Maloney’s men, though, one such three-point haul did come last time out.
After steadying the ship courtesy of successive draws with Coventry City and Watford, Wigan welcomed Queens Park Rangers to the DW Stadium in their post-international break return to action.
And, when all was said and done, Max Power’s spot-kick inside six minutes proved decisive, en route to an eventual 1-0 result.
The Latics, as a result, may well head to Bramall Lane with confidence high in the camp.
We at 101, though, find it difficult to look beyond hosts Sheffield United as the overwhelming favourites to ultimately clinch all three points.
