The friendly match between Wigan Athletic and Everton will take place at DW Stadium on Saturday at 6:30 pm IST.
Everton aims to maintain their perfect record in pre-season friendlies as they travel to the DW Stadium to face Wigan Athletic on Saturday afternoon. Under the guidance of Sean Dyche, Everton has already secured a 2-1 victory against Swiss team Stade Nyonnais in their pre-season campaign. On the other hand, Wigan Athletic, who had a tough 2022-23 season in League One, will kick off their pre-season schedule this weekend.
Wigan Athletic had a strong beginning to their 2022-23 Championship campaign, suffering only one loss in their first eight matches in the second tier. However, both on-field struggles and off-field controversies soon became apparent under Maloney’s leadership. Despite achieving 10 wins and 15 draws, Wigan ended the season three points short of what they could have accumulated. This unfortunate outcome led to their inevitable relegation to League One.
While Wigan Athletic couldn’t avoid relegation, Sean Dyche’s Everton managed to achieve another remarkable survival in the Premier League. Throughout the season, Everton struggled with the threat of relegation, but they fought hard and managed to secure 17th place in the final four gameweeks. On the last day of the season, Abdoulaye Doucoure’s goal against Bournemouth ensured the Toffees once again avoided the drop to the Championship.
Wigan Athletic probable starting lineup: Amos, Whatmough, Morrison, Pearce, Clare, M. Smith, Balagizi, Robinson, Aasgaard, McManaman; Wyke
Everton probable starting lineup: Pickford, Godfrey, Tarkowski, Keane, Patterson, Gueye, Doucoure, Iwobi, McNeil, Cannon, Maupay
