Head-to-head

Sunderland have lost just one of their last five Premier League matches against Wigan (W2, D2, L1).

There has not been a goalless draw in the last 15 games between the two sides in all competitions.

Sunderland

Sunderland could become only the second team in top-flight history to draw their first five league games of the season. Leicester are the only club to do that so far, drawing their first six in 1976.

The Black Cats’ sequence of 12 Premier League games without a win is Martin O’Neill’s worst run as a manager in the division.

Steven Fletcher, who is set to make his 100th Premier League appearance, has scored all of Sunderland’s four league goals this season.

Sunderland are the only team in the Premier League that have not gone a goal behind in any of their matches this season.

The Black Cats have won just three corners in their four Premier League games this season.

Wigan

Defeat against Sunderland would give Wigan their worst ever points tally (four) after six games of a Premier League campaign.

Only QPR (11) and Southampton (15) have conceded more goals than Wigan (10) in the Premier League this season.

The Latics are one point worse off than at the equivalent stage of last season.

Roberto Martinez’s side are looking to avoid suffering three consecutive Premier League defeats for the first time since January.

Wigan have won two of their last three Premier League away games.
