Aston Villa vs Wigan Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Ahead of the new season, Villa seemed better equipped for the Championship campaign having played six preseason matches and it told in their comfortable win on match day one. On the other hand, Wigan played three preseason matches and picked just a win the process and they went on to concede two, even though they scored three on the opening day of the season. Villa head to the game on four wins in their last five matches and will only be hoping to improve on their home form that has seen them go winless in the last four, with two losses, and two draws. They have managed just one win in their last five matches and scored three, while conceding four in the process. In their six preseason games Aston Villa managed four wins and in their last 10 matches they have registered six wins. They have a fairly good run in the Championship with five wins and six clean sheets in the last 10, but they have to improve on their home form in the competition. They go to this clash winless in their last three Championship matches at home. However, they have lost just two of the last 15 home matches in the league. Wigan, on their part, have also had a mixed run ahead of this clash, with three wins, a loss and a draw in the last five. They have managed two wins, two draws and a loss in the past five games, scoring five and conceding six goals. They have five wins in 10 matches and have lost just once in the last 12 and scored in eight of their last 10 matches. They however have just one win in five Championship matches and that is not good enough. Wigan have not enjoyed a very stable run in the Championship, posting 11 winless outings in the last 15, and with just three clean sheets in the process. They have four straight away losses in the Championship and just four wins in the last 15 Championship matches. Head to head, the two sides have met 19 times, and Aston Villa have won eight while Wigan have ended up winners five times.

Our Aston Villa vs Wigan Prediction
Aston Villa have been dominant in this fixture and their comeback against Hull City still goes a long way to show they have the fight in them. Both sides won the opening encounters and while Villa came from down to win convincingly, Wigan labored through their win over Sheffield Wednesday. Wigan did well in the League One but here they meet a side well acquainted with the Championship and lost just thrice at home in 27 league matches. A good bet here would be on an Aston Villa win and on both sides to score.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
