Wigan away to Chelsea

Last season Wigan should have come away with a deserved win. This season I would be delighted with an undeserved win.

Kone will return to Wigan this week, but ten others will be away on international duty.

For Chelsea, John Mikel Obi, Victor Moses and Kenneth Omeruo are still away with Nigeria. Chelsea have also had a large number of players away this week, including six in the England-Brazil game alone.

Both teams will depend on players returning home safely. Wigan have shown a greater resilience recently, while Chelsea have shown a defensive frailty. Wigan could bring a valuable point home.

Eden Hazard has completed his suspension. Demba Ba may be able to play in a mask. Petr Cech is doubtful with a broken finger, and John Terry is not fit to play.

Arouna Kone should return but now Gary Caldwell may not be fit. Antolin Alcaraz is just about ready to play, but this would be a difficult game for his return.

Chelsea have lost the lead in three of the last four league games. This year, they have won three out of all ten games. Wigan have pulled back a deficit in the last two league games to get a draw. In all games, they have lost just one of the last seven.

Both sides need the points, but at opposite ends of the table.

Villa suffered your 8-0 victory this season.

I'm afraid that Hazard will be out to impress on his return. He made two goals in the first ten minutes at Wigan.

A good performance but a bad result. Southampton are climbing out of trouble, leaving a group of just four at the bottom.

The game at Reading now assumes enormous importance. Wigan look in good heart and should be able to compete strongly.
