Squad sheets: Wigan Athletic v Stoke City

Roberto Martínez's team avoided the drop on the final day of last season at Stoke and sense a dramatic escape once more after a run of one defeat in seven games. Wigan's form was improving even before last week's victory at Liverpool, "a historic win" according to their manager, and they are now only a point off safety despite a dreadful return of one home win all season. Correcting that glaring weakness is the key to survival but, having frustrated Manchester City last weekend, Stoke will be strengthened by the return of Ricardo Fuller from suspension and Jonathan Woodgate from injury.
