Blackpool and Wigan Athletic go head-to-head in a mouth-watering EFL Championship relegation three-pointer on Saturday. Both sides are currently separated by just one point at the bottom of the league table and we anticipate a thrilling battle at Bloomfield Road. Blackpool suffered a fresh blow in their quest for survival as they fell to a 3-1 defeat against Luton Town at Kenilworth Road on Monday.
Stephen Dobbie’s men have now lost four games on the spin, scoring four goals and shipping 13 since their 6-1 thrashing of Queens Park Rangers on March 14. The Seasiders have picked up 35 points from 41 games to sit 23rd in the EFL Championship table, one point and one place above Saturday’s visitors. Meanwhile, Wigan Athletic were left languishing at the bottom of the league table as they fell to a 2-0 home loss against Swansea City on Monday.
This followed a 1-0 defeat against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on April 7 which saw the Latics’ three-game unbeaten run come to an end. While Wigan will be looking to arrest their slump and resume their race against the drop, they are without a win in 16 straight away games, losing nine and claiming seven draws since October.
