Wigan Athletic vs Hull City Prediction and Betting Tips | 2nd January 2023

Hull City v Wigan Athletic - Sky Bet Championship
Hull City have their last three league clashes with Wigan

Wigan Athletic host Hull City at the DW Stadium in the EFL Championship on Monday, looking to arrest their losing run.

The Latics have lost each of their last three games in a row - 2-1 vs Sheffield United, 4-1 vs Middlesbrough and 4-1 vs Sunderland and failed to win any of their last four.

With just six wins and 24 points in 25 matches, Kolo Touré's side are rock bottom in the league standings and look set for an immediate return to League One.

Hull City haven't particularly covered themselves in glory either, languishing in 18th position in the table, having accrued just six points more than Wigan.

However, unlike the Latics, the Tigers have undergone managerial changes, with Shota Arveladze getting sacked in September and Andy Dawson taking over the reins on an interim basis until Liam Rosenior was unveiled as the next permanent manager in November.

However, on Friday, Hull picked up their first win in five games with a narrow 1-0 win over Birmingham.
