Wigan vs Morecambe Predictions

• Morecambe have won two away games all season
• Wigan have lost once at home in the league in 2022
• Morecambe have conceded 14 goals in their last six away matches

Great opportunity for The Latics to improve goal difference  

Wigan are now just three points ahead of MK Dons now and these two sides look set to battle it out for the last automatic promotion spot on offer this season. The race for second place may boil down to goal difference and Wigan, who have lost once at home in the league in 2022, have been afforded a great chance too greatly improve their goal difference as they welcome struggling Morecambe to the DW on Saturday.

Derek Adams has had little effect on The Shrimps

Derek Adams has yet to have the impact the Morecambe board were hoping for when they reappointed him as manager following a failed stint at Bradford. Morecambe have conceded 11 goals and taken just one point from the four games Adams has overseen since his return and his side look to have their work cut out on Saturday. Morecambe have won just two of their 19 away games this season and performances seem to have gotten worse in recent weeks. Morecambe shipped five at goal shy Shrewsbury last week and have now conceded 14 goals and scored just two in their last six away matches.

Getting hit for five at Shrewsbury last weekend is arguably Morecambe’s worst result of the season and confidence must be on the floor as they almost looked resigned to the drop. Wigan have been afforded a great opportunity to make it five unbeaten in the league, the recommended bet for this match is Wigan on the -1 handicap. The correct score prediction for this game will be a 3-0 home win.
