What an epic battle this could be as Sam Allardyce's head is in the firing line. Newcastle must get a win here or Allardyce faces the chop; on the other hand Steve Bruce is getting Wigan going a little and today could be the place to get some points.
Suspensions and Injuries
Emile Heskey could return following an ankle injury but Jason Koumas remains a major doubt with a groin problem.
Stephen Carr is fit after a hamstring injury, as is Abdoulaye Faye.
Squads
Wigan (from): Kirkland, Melchiot, Taylor, Boyce, Bramble, Kilbane, Valencia, Brown, Scharner, Landzaat, Koumas, Bent, Heskey, Aghahowa, Granqvist, Olembe, Koumas, Skoko, Cotterill, Hall, Sibierski, Pollitt.
Newcastle (from): Given, Harper, Carr, Beye, N'Zogbia, Enrique, Rozehnal, Cacapa, Taylor, Faye, Edgar, Geremi, Butt, Barton, Milner, Emre, Duff, Smith, Martins, Viduka, Owen.
