Man. United vs Wigan Ath. .. Week # 4 EPL

Manchester United FC vs Wigan Athletic FC

English Premier League

Saturday, September 15th 2012

Old Trafford @ 14:00 (GMT)

United have history upper hand:-

Manchester United and Wigan, a match that the Red Devils dominated since the 2005-06 season whether it was at Old Trafford or the DW; but last season Wigan were responsible of holding Man. United during the last meters in title race.

Injury scares for United... I don't think so:-

RvP is ruled fit to face Wigan, along with Kagawa. RvP's injury during international duty scared the United faithful, since Rooney isn't fit enough... But "he (Rooney) is showing good signs" as Sir Alex claims!

Ali AlHabsi: How long can you survive the United threat at Old Trafford this time?:-

AlHabsi, arguably one of the best GK's in the EPL nowadays... But is he good enough to deny Man. United an easy win? I don't think so, RvP will show everyone that Sir Alex didn't make a mistake when he brought him to the Theatre of Dreams. He will do what he does best... SCORE WHEN HE WANTS!!!

Starting line-up, and Sir Alex's choices:-

In my opinion, Sir Alex is somewhat controversial regarding the starting line-up(s). And throughout my research about this match, it is rumoured that Welbeck and Chicharito will start against Wigan. Controversial? Yes, Sir... ALEX!

United... Intimidating attack, but a vulnerable defence:-

Although United scored 6 goals in 3 matches, let's not forget that they conceded 5. Man. United's defence may improve in the upcoming weeks, hence I believe they'll concede this time; al least once!

Prediction:-

Since we're in week #4, I think Man. United will ease past Wigan. Ali AlHabsi won't stand achance against RvP and co.

Man. United FC 3-1 Wigan Athletic
