Squad sheets: Arsenal v Wigan Athletic

This one looks easy for Arsenal, perhaps too easy. Having breezed past West Ham and – in the FA Cup – Leeds, Arsène Wenger's side would appear to be in the right frame of remind to offer the Emirates a repetition of last season's 4-0 frolic against a Wigan team with only four league wins this season and facing another struggle to stay up. Nevertheless, Roberto Martínez's defence is proving more resilient on its travels, conceding eight goals fewer than at the DW Stadium, and Arsenal will not want to squander too many chances while the home fans again grow restless.
