This leaves the Latics sitting comfortably in the playoff places with a three point cushion over seventh placed Millwall.
We also have a superior goal difference of seven.
Crystal Palace play Sunderland tomorrow night and a Black Cats win would go down very well at the JJB.
Here's how the playoff race looks tonight.
