Goal Statistics

Wigan Athletic have been reliable in front of goal of late, scoring in 5 consecutive League Cup matches. Their PG of 1.5 against Notts County on Tuesday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Wigan Athletic's defensive record is to be admired, Ryan Lowe's men having conceded 1 or less in 10 consecutive League Cup matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Notts County makes sense in this context.
