Preamble
Morning. Norwich are nearly there. They need seven points from the last five matches to guarantee promotion, and their form should make it a formality. Their winning run ended in that madcap draw against Reading in the week, when they lost it, won it and finally drew it, but a run of 25 points from nine games is promotion form and then some.
When these teams met at Carrow Road at the end of September, Wigan were fifth and Norwich 12th. Now it’s 1st v 21st, with Wigan fighting for survival. Their 1-0 defeat at Carrow Road was the start of a long, miserable run of four wins in 32 games. Even allowing for their decent home form, it would be a big surprise if they made it five in 33 today.
Kick off is at midday.
