Another massive game on Saturday with Burton Albion in town as the Latics go looking to confirm their place in League 1 for next season.
Since Burton gained promotion to the Football League our two clubs have only met on six occasions, with things definitely equal, two wins apiece and two draws, though we did meet in our non-league days, the last of those meetings coming in the FA Trophy back in 1972 and saw Latics record a 5:0 victory.
Since becoming a league side we have yet to beat Burton at the DW, in fact we haven’t scored a goal against the Brewers in the two games we’ve played here in Wigan.
Memorable Game - Burton Albion 3:4 Latics
The last time we met, 29 December 2020, what a game that was.
Behind three times only for Kyle Joseph to claw us back level on each occasion as the Latics youngster bagged his first senior hat-trick, Will Keane popped up in the 83rd minute to grab the decisive goal in a 3-4 classic.
