Stoke City will host Wigan in the English Premier League. Both teams stay above the relegation zone but considering the recent forms; no one can guarantee they will stay up the line in the following weeks.

Stoke City have been quite unpredictable this season. When people think they are about to keep playing and producing results; they fail and when it looks like they are falling hard; they rise. Not a good data when it comes to prediction. Stoke City may be without thir attacker Beattie due to a slight injury. Since we mentioned Beattie; he had an argument with the manager after the last matchday against Arsenal and seems like he won’t be in the manager’s plan for a while, anyway.

Wigan on the other hand are really having hard times to organize their defence. Looks like they just can’t stop conceding and today their main goalkeeper Kirkland is doubtful. What a news for a team that already has defensive problems… Plus they will have to do without their midfielder Thomas.

As for prediction; hard to tell we will have an action pack game here. I expect a low scoring game. Even the visitors have a terrible defensive organization; Stoke City is not a goal scoring machine, anyway. Stoke City will also pay attention to their defensive organization as the visitors will have their talented attacker Rodallega to rely on. Well, looks like the outcome result would be a narrow one most likely in favor of Stoke City but wise choice would be to go for a goal prediction in a match between two unreliable sides.
