Wigan pack their bags to visit Wimbledon at Selhurst Park Stadium on Saturday evening, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Half the previous contests have ended with a drawn game, but unfortunately the other half have ended in a defeat for the Latics.
The previous match played between the two at Selhurst Park Stadium was within the last three years, in September 2000, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Cup match.
