6 months after their last encounter in League One, the spotlight turns to the field where Wigan and Blackpool renew their battle.

Their form at the back has been sharp lately, with three consecutive clean sheets.

Blackpool, in contrast to their opponent's recent successes, are heading into this match following a defeat to Wrexham in the League One on April 21. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last three matches.

This League One encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for Wigan and Blackpool throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. Dale Taylor and Thelo Aasgaard have been pivotal for Wigan’s attack, with Ryan Lowe at the helm, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Taylor has already scored nine goals in League One this season, while also being their most creative player, providing seven assists in the league so far. Adding further support are Jonny Smith, Matthew Smith and James Carragher, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Blackpool’s top finisher Ashley Fletcher and Rob Apter have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Steve Bruce, remains effective. Fletcher leads Blackpool’s scoring charts in League One this season with eleven goals, and continues to shine as their top assist provider, with eight goal-creating passes this term. Blackpool’s offense has also been strengthened by Albie Morgan, Lee Evans and Kyle Joseph, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.
