Cambridge Utd vs WiganPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Cambridge United host Wigan at the Abbey Stadium on the opening weekend of League One, with the table still empty. There are no recent Cambridge fixtures on record, so the picture has to be built from what the visitors have shown. Wigan have been up and down: a 1-1 at Barnsley and a 0-0 at Southport on one hand, a 0-2 at Grimsby and a 1-3 at home to Port Vale on the other, with a 3-0 against AFC Fylde the only win in their last five. Three of those games stopped at two goals or fewer between the sides, and twice Wigan failed to score at all. There is no head-to-head record to consult either: this is a first matchday with Cambridge at home and Wigan facing their first competitive away trip of the season. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
