Bromley's record over the same length of sample reads three wins, six draws and 11 losses, with 17 scored and 49 conceded. Their league form has swung about as well, from a 2-1 home win over Huddersfield to a heavy 2-7 defeat at Sheffield Wednesday and a 0-4 loss to Leicester more recently.

Neither side arrives with much momentum to lean on.

Comparative Team Statistics: Wigan vs Bromley

Close company near the bottom

Wigan currently sit in 24th position with seven points from nine games, built on two wins, one draw and six losses. They've scored just six goals and conceded 13 in that time.

Bromley are a touch higher in 22nd with eight points from nine, also with two wins but one more draw, having scored nine and shipped 21.

Only a point separates the two sides in the table, which tells you plenty about where both are right now.

Adeboyejo carries Bromley's threat

Victor Adeboyejo has scored four goals in seven appearances for Bromley this season, comfortably their standout contributor in front of goal from what's available.

Discipline could be worth watching too. Bromley's Mark Pinnock has picked up four yellow cards in seven games, while Wigan's James Carragher has three in six, both edging closer to a suspension.

If Adeboyejo has a quiet game, Bromley's attacking threat looks thin.

Which pattern wins out?

The tricky part here is that the two teams' matches have looked quite different shapes. Bromley's league games have tended to be high-scoring, averaging well over three goals a match given their goals for and against. Wigan's have gone the other way, often tight and low on goals.

With both sides short on form and sitting close together near the foot of the table, it's hard to say with confidence which pattern dominates on the day.
