READING, England (Interstat) — Reading will look to complete a season double over Wigan Athletic when the sides meet in a League One fixture at the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Saturday.

The matchup comes just over six weeks after Reading secured a 2-1 away victory at the DW Stadium on Feb. 10, a result that forms part of a patchy run of form for both clubs entering the weekend.

Reading, the home side, arrives off a 1-0 away defeat to Stevenage last Saturday, which snapped a two-game winning streak that included a 2-1 victory at Burton Albion. Their form has been inconsistent since the last Wigan game, with three wins, two draws and three losses across all competitions. Key results include a 3-2 win at Luton Town and a 2-1 victory at Bradford City, but also home losses to Mansfield Town and Stevenage.

Wigan Athletic carries slightly more momentum, coming off a 2-0 home win against Exeter City last weekend. That victory helped steady a period of mixed results that featured a heavy 4-0 loss to Arsenal in the FA Cup and a 6-1 thrashing at Peterborough United in early February. Their league form has been more resilient lately, losing just once in their last five League One outings (two wins, two draws).

The statistical projection service Interstat simulates a tight, low-scoring affair, predicting a 1-1 draw.

For Reading, the match is a chance to solidify their standing and gain points on the road to potential promotion. For Wigan, it represents an opportunity for redemption after the February loss and to continue building momentum from the Exeter win.

Following this fixture, Reading’s next assignment is a trip to Hfield Town on Friday, April 3. Wigan Athletic’s schedule continues at home against Leyton Orient on Thursday, April 2.
