PREVIEW: Wigan v Ipswich

[dropcap]A[/dropcap]fter a Super Sunday that really did live up to the hype it’s back to the Championship on Monday for Wigan v Ipswich at the DW Stadium.

Wigan have dominated Ipswich recently – winning the last four head to heads in the Championship and also the Carling Cup. Ipswich, however, have made the marginal better start to the new campaign with 11 points from 7 games.

Wigan boss Uwe Rosler has no fresh injury worries and midfielder James McClean is expected to be fully fit after a recent hamstring injury.

For Ipswich, midfielder Cameron Stewart is likely to miss the match because of a knee injury.
