When United play Wigan on Saturday, they might not feature key new signings Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa, as both suffered minor injuries while on their international duties for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers. Van Persie incurred a thigh injury while playing for the Netherlands in their 4-1 win against Hungary. Kagawa withdrew from Japan’s 1-0 against Iraq due to back pain sustained from training.

While United have played their best in their last two games with the help of van Persie and Kagawa, they face the risk of downgrading when they face Wigan in their absence. Danny Welbeck and Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez are suitable replacements, though they have yet to prove their current form as starters for the club this season. Wayne Rooney’s absence is another blow to the club as he is set to spend time on the sidelines for up to two months.

Wigan Athletic will be playign against tough oponnent United, but with a stronger force due to the satisfactory forms of ex-Chelsea striker Franco di Santo, midfielders Shaun Maloney and James McArthur. While they lost to United by 16 goals in four out of their last five matches, they caught the Red Devils by surprise 1-0 in their previous encounter in April last season. A weaker United squad will give ample goal opportunities for Wigan.

A close game is highly possible between the two sides, with Manchester United poised to win at 2-1. Handicap bets would mean a win for Wigan by one goal (see Full Time Handicap below for reference).
