Our Three Predictions For Wycombe Wanderers vs Wigan Athletic
- First Prediction: Wycombe Wanderers To Win – 61/100
- Second Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals – 61/100
- Third Prediction: Both Teams To Score – No – 33/50
First Prediction For Wycombe Wanderers vs Wigan Athletic – Wycombe Wanderers To Win – 61/100
Wycombe head into this game on a six-match unbeaten run. They may have recorded three draws in that time but they recovered from back-to-back stalemates to beat Bristol Rovers 2-0 on Tuesday night. With Wrexham losing against Leyton Orient, this has seen them strengthen their grip on second place, and they currently sit five points above the Red Dragons. Although the League One title looks out of their grasp, they will be confident that they can continue their march towards the Championship against a team languishing in the bottom half of the table.
Wigan are a team out of form and are yet to pick up a win this month. Their last victory came towards the end of January whilst they also suffered a home defeat against the Chairboys earlier this season. The Latics will still be looking over the shoulder somewhat. They are just six points above the relegation places, but they could endure a tough afternoon at Adams Park.
Second Prediction For Wycombe Wanderers vs Wigan Athletic – Under 2.5 Goals – 61/100
Wycombe had to contend with some upheaval last month when manager Matt Bloomfield departed for Luton Town. New boss Mike Dodds has enjoyed a steady start, picking up a win and a draw in his two league games thus far. Both encounters have produced two goals whilst their FA Cup clash against Preston North End finished 0-0, with the Championship outfit eventually progressing on penalties.
Similarly, all of Wigan’s last five league outings have produced under three goals whilst the last three meetings between the two have all finished 1-0. Another low scoring affair looks on the cards here.
Third Prediction For Wycombe Wanderers vs Wigan Athletic – Both Teams To Score – No – 33/50
Wycombe enter this game on the back of two clean sheets against Bristol Rovers and Preston North End and will be looking to extend that record here. They may have conceded more goals than any of the current top six, but they appear to have shored up at the back, keeping two shut outs in their last three home games.
Wigan are a tough team to predict in front of goal with only Peterborough United preventing them from scoring away from home this year. However, they only have 28 goals in 30 games this season and it will be difficult to break down a team who are looking to be plying their trade in the Championship next season.

Full Preview of the Game: Last Results and Head-To-Head
Wycombe have arguably been the surprise package of League One this season. They head into this game in second place, five points above Wrexham in third, and having lost just twice since August. They have dropped points since the turn of the year though, drawing with Northampton Town, Cambridge United and Crawley Town. The Chairboys returned to winning ways in their last outing, beating Bristol Rovers 2-0. New head coach Mike Dodds will be hoping those three points are the catalyst to kickstart his career at Adams Park. This will be his first game in charge in front of his own supporters.
Wigan don’t appear to be involved in the relegation discussion, but there is still every chance they can get dragged into the battle. A 1-1 draw with Crawley Town on Tuesday keeps them 16th in the table, although they are just six points above Burton Albion in 21st. They have lost five of their last 10 in the league, with only three of those games ending in a win.
Wycombe emerged from The Brick Community Stadium in November with a 1-0 win, whilst also winning by the same scoreline at Adams Park last season. Wigan’s last victory in this fixture also finished 1-0, just over a year ago. Despite losing the last two, the Latics have the far superior record against Wycombe, winning 12 of their 21 clashes, losing just four.
