This is a League One meeting between Wigan Athletic and Stockport County, with both sides looking to build momentum in the league standings. CheckLive's read favours Stockport, giving them a 66% win probability with a strong signal, though that still leaves plenty of room for a draw or a home result. Nothing is being treated as a foregone conclusion.
Wigan have lost four of their last five, with league defeats to AFC Wimbledon, Leyton Orient and Cambridge United, plus a 6-7 EFL Cup reverse to Barnsley. Their only win in that run came against Aston Villa U21 in the Football League Trophy. Stockport have won three of their last five, beating Wycombe Wanderers, Plymouth Argyle and Everton U21, while losing to Blackpool in League One and Doncaster Rovers on penalties in the EFL Cup.
The head-to-head shows seven previous meetings, with Wigan winning two, drawing two and losing three. The most recent encounter, in February 2026, went to Stockport, who won 4-2 in League One. The key thing to watch is whether Wigan can arrest their slide against a Stockport side that has been more consistent of late.
