A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Match Preview :

Newcastle goes into this match with Wigan aiming to remain unbeaten when the match is over. Newcastle currently sit in fourth in the Premier League, with 16 points from their opening eight games.

In their last match the Magpies showed tremendous fighting spirit by coming back twice to force the draw with Tottenham.

Meanwhile, Roberto Martinez's Wigan have endured a difficult start to their campaign, picking up just five points to sit second-from-bottom of the table. Wigan though will be desperate to halt a run of five successive losses, the latest a 3-1 home defeat to Bolton.

Team News :

Newcastle United
Alan Pardew has an almost full squad to choose from for the home side.

Captain Fabricio Coloccini has had a minor toe problem, but is expected to be fit, while Haris Vuckic (broken hand) and Alan Smith(hamstring) are available again.

Only central defender Mike Williamson, who has recovered from surgery on an arm fracture but is now battling an ankle injury, remains out of the side.

Wigan Athletic
For Wigan, striker Hugo Rodallega is set for a return to the starting line-up after making his comeback from a knee injury last weekend.

Steve Gohouri had 45 minutes in which he played poorly and could be replaced in this match. Maynor Figueroa, who was dropped to the bench at the weekend is likely to return to the side to replace Gohouri.

Possible lineups

Newcastle : Krul, Coloccini, R Taylor, S Taylor, Simpson, Gutierrez, Tiote, Cabaye, Obertan, Ba, Best.

Wigan : Al Habsi, Boyce, Caldwell, Alcaraz, Figueroa, Diame, Jones, Watson, McCarthy, Moses, Rodallega.
