It’s now 11 years since Wigan’s historic FA Cup triumph beating Manchester City in the final back in 2013. The Latics currently sit 18th in the League One table, however they did start the campaign with a points deduction. Wigan could well prove to be a bit of a banana skin for Manchester United on Monday and for those who believe they can cause an upset, 12/1 is available.
It’s been a turbulent season for Erik ten Hag’s side and they have only won one of their last six matches across all competitions. United are 10/1 in the FA Cup winner market to go all the way this term, but are odds-on to see off Wigan, priced at just 2/9 to get the win in 90 minutes.
Wigan vs Man United Tips
Both of our tips on Monday can be backed via the bet365 Bet Builder feature, with the first of those being for both Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund to record Over 0.5 Shots on Target at 6/5.
The FA Cup could prove a really important competition for both Erik ten Hag and Manchester United this season with such underperformance in other formats this term and as a result the manager is expected to name a strong side.
Since his stunning bicycle kick against Everton, Garnacho is averaging a healthy 3.5 shots a game and also bagged a brace on Boxing Day in the 3-2 win over Aston Villa. Rasmus Hojlund scored the winner in that game, and with The Danish forward having fully recovered from illness he should be raring to go here. This same bet pays just 8/13 with Sky, so take the much juicer offering that is available with bet365.
For those looking for something at a bigger price we’d like to highlight the 31/1 that is on show for Wigan’s Callum Lang to score and be carded. Lang often performs well in the FA Cup and has scored five in 16 appearances. In total for Wigan he has managed 30 goals in 104 appearances and taking a look at his disciplinary record this campaign he already has six yellow and one red card to his name. Lang will be bang up for it on Monday and will relish the opportunity to play against higher level opposition in such a high profile-fixture.
