Squad sheets: Wigan Athletic v Aston Villa

Sat in last place and without a win in their previous 10 Premier League matches on home soil, a sense of inevitability is starting to define Wigan's relegation prospects. In that regard their manager, Roberto Martínez, may look upon the opposition dugout with just a hint of frustration given he turned down the chance to take over at Aston Villa last summer. The club instead appointed Alex McLeish and may now be regretting that choice given the team currently sits three places above the drop zone.
