Martin Jol: “When we last played Wigan they were on a high because they changed their system and had four wins and a draw. We were the only team who beat them so hopefully we can come up with the same answers. Last season we managed to get four wins away from home and a couple of draws which was not good, but it wasn’t bad either. I always say that if you get five or six away wins then I think we will do well."

Hugo Rodallega starts against his old club today. Roberto Martinez said of his former player: "We know Hugo really well. It's one of those situations where I'm sure when Hugo retires everyone will have incredible memories of his past at Wigan Athletic and I'm sure he'll have a really soft spot for his time at Wigan."
