Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

There is 76% chance of Cambridge and Wigan a maximum of 3 goals combined during this League One fixture according to our predictive algorithm and, in the absense of a strong favourite in the win draw win market, we think that's a great tip here. Our calculations are made based on 20-game form, historical head-to-head (H2H) stats and the view of the betting market, and you can go with it at a best price of 1.22.
