Wigan v Blackburn Betting: Both sides to cancel each other out in draw

Wigan welcome Blackburn to the DW Stadium in the Premier League this Saturday. Roberto Martinez will be desperate for his side to pick the three points while Steve Kean will be confident of a rare away win.

Wigan are rock-bottom in the league at the moment which explains why they are 16/11 for the win with Unibet. Blackburn, who are just above them in the table by a point, can be backed at 9/5 for the victory while a draw is 9/4 with Unibet.

A win here would be vital for both sides but it is hard to pick either side over the other. Wigan have been horrendous so far with eight losses in a row while Blackburn haven’t picked up a win since back in September. These two look set to be fighting to beat the drop this season and it wouldn’t be a surprise if both went down. Steve Kean is the favourites among the bookmakers to be the next manager to leave his post but Roberto Martinez is probably safe at Wigan. He turned down an offer from Aston Villa in summer so Chairman Dave Whelan is likely to show his loyalty.

Can either manager turn their seasons around? Both can do it because they have teams with talent in them. Blackburn have a host of experience in their side while Wigan have a talented crop of young players who can get them out of danger. It is not going to be easy for either but it is possible. For Saturday’s game, it is hard to have confidence in backing either side so a draw looks like the best option at 9/4 with Unibet.

Wigan must have a big performance in them after their run of results and the international break will have given them a long time to think about their position. Blackburn, meanwhile, will be aiming to pick up the win but they have yet to record a victory on the road this season. This is going to be an intense, crunch encounter and they may have to settle for a draw. A correct score of 1-1 is offered at 11/2 with Unibet while 2-2 is definitely worth considering at 13/1 with the same firm.

Tip #1: Back a draw at 9/4 with Unibet

Tip #2: Back a correct score of 1-1 at 11/2 with Unibet

Tip #3: Back a correct score of 2-2 at 13/1 with Unibet
