Match facts

Wigan are without a win in their last four league meetings with Reading (D1 L3), since a 1-0 away triumph back in February 2015. Reading are unbeaten in each of their last three away league visits to Wigan (W1 D2), after losing four of the previous five (D1). Since beating Nottingham Forest 1-0 in October, Wigan have failed to win any of their six Championship games (D2 L4), conceding 2+ goals in each of their last five matches, Reading have won just one of their last 13 away Championship games (D6 L6), a 2-0 victory at Huddersfield back in August (P5 W0 D2 L3 since on the road). Wigan's Cheyenne Dunkley is the top scoring Championship defender this season (5) - he has netted three more than any other player for the Latics in the competition in 2019-20. Reading's John Swift has created more chances than any other Championship player this season (54), with six of them being converted.
