Wigan West Brom Odds : Martinez can stave off relegation with vicrory over Baggies
Wigan will need to start finding the back of the net if they are to stand any chance of staying up this season. Their total of just 24 goals from 28 games this season is the worst in the division, and put simply, that is why they are not winning games this season.
For much of the campaign, Roberto Martinez has spoken of how impressed he has been with his side’s build up play, and even the resilience they have shown at the back at times this season, but for all it is worth, they find themselves rooted to the foot of the Premier League table.
In total they have won just four games all season, with their home form being far below what their fans will expect of them. With just one win from 14 games at the DW Stadium so far, it is no wonder they are struggling.

One of their rare wins this season, however, came against Roy Hodgson’s West Bromwich Albion side, albeit away from home. If the Latics can wrap up a league double against them, they may well believe they have enough to make a late push for survival.
But the Baggies are in good form at the moment, winning three of their last four games, despite being on the end of a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United at the weekend.
West Brom find themselves 13 points above the bottom three and still harbour outside ambitions of a top seven finish. If they are to achieve that, though, these are the sort of games they know they will have to win.
The two sides have faced one another a total of 16 times in all competitions, with Wigan just about having the upper hand. They have won seven of the games between the two, lost six and drawn three.
It all sets up an intriguing encounter from 3pm on Saturday afternoon, with both sides desperate for the win.
