Stoke City

Wigan win could seal remarkable escape after last weeks nailbiting win at home to West Ham

Wigan will have to overcome the 7th best home record in the PL this season, Stoke have 10 wins and four draws and just four teams have left with all three points

City have won both matches in the PL against Stoke at Eastlands and have yet to concede a goal with 3-0 and 2-0 wins

Stoke will be going all out for the win as they could yet finish 7th which would be a fantastic achievement to go with reaching the FA Cup Final
