As Wigan prepares to host Stockport County at The Brick Community Stadium during this League One encounter, both teams enter the match with contrasting fortunes this season. Wigan, yet to secure any points, will need a strong performance against a Stockport County side that has shown promise in the early stages of the campaign.
Team form
Wigan
Wigan's recent form has been disheartening, with three consecutive losses in League One. They currently sit at the bottom of the table. Notably, they have struggled defensively, conceding two goals per game on average. While they've showcased moments of attacking flair, particularly in their prior game against Aston Villa U21 where they surprisingly scored three goals, they have often failed to find the back of the net against tougher opposition.
Stockport County
On the other hand, Stockport County brings an impressive recent record into this match. They've won two out of their last five games, showcasing their attacking prowess, particularly with an eye-catching 5-1 victory over Wycombe. Stockport combines a potent attack, which boasts an average of three goals per game, with a solid defense looking to build on their current fifth position in the league standings.
Head-to-head
In their last five encounters, Stockport County has shown dominance, with three wins to Wigan's one, and a single draw. The most recent matchup on February 21, 2026, ended in a 4-2 victory for Stockport. Their solid head-to-head record will undoubtedly boost Stockport's confidence as they look to add another win to their tally this weekend.
Key factors
Wigan's chances will hinge on how quickly their players can adapt and recover their form. They will need to focus on strengthening their defense, which has faltered considerably. In contrast, Stockport's ability to keep possession—evidenced by their average of 65%—will be crucial. With in-form players like H. Wood, J. Diamond, and K. Wootton leading the charge, they must fully utilize their attacking talent to exploit Wigan's vulnerabilities.
Prediction
Given the current form and statistics, Stockport is poised to come out on top in this matchup. Their ability to find the net consistently combined with Wigan's struggles in defense suggests that the away team will likely control the tempo and seize key opportunities.
All signs point to an away victory for Stockport County, who are expected to dominate the game and secure the three points in this League One encounter.
