Watch English Premier League match, Wigan Vs West Ham highlights here.

Venue: DW Stadium
Date: Saturday, 27 October, 2012
Kick off: 15:00

Head-to-head

The last four meetings in league and cup have produced a total of 19 goals. That includes a 4-1 win for Wigan when the sides met at Upton Park in the League Cup in September.

The Latics are chasing a third successive home win against the Hammers.

Wigan Athletic

Roberto Martinez’s men have yet to win at home this season.

Their last victory at the DW Stadium came against Wolves on the final day of last season.

They have only kept one clean sheet in their last 11 league and cup games.

The Latics have lost six of their last seven Premier League games against London opposition. The exception was their 2-1 win at Arsenal in April.

Wigan are the only Premier League team who have yet to recoup any points after falling behind this season.

West Ham United

Sam Allardyce’s men have claimed 14 points from their opening eight matches. It is their best start to a Premier League season since 1999-00 when, under Harry Redknapp, they collected 16 points.

The Hammers have only lost one of their last 13 games away from Upton Park (including play-off games), a run stretching back to January. Their only defeat in that time was a 3-0 loss at Swansea in August.

West Ham will go in search of back-to-back Premier League away wins for the first time since December 2007, when they won at Blackburn and then Middlesbrough.

The Hammers have committed more fouls (120) than any other top-flight side this term.
