FA Cup Betting Preview: Wigan vs Barrow

League One team Wigan host League Two outfit Barrow at The Brick Community Stadium, with kick-off set for 10:00 on Saturday 6 December.

Under 2.5 the Most Likely Outcome

The numbers imply that we’ll see a low-scoring contest and a goal tally of two or less could be the sensible bet when Wigan play Barrow. Secure a price of -118 for Under 2.5 Goals.

Wigan Triumphed in Last Game

Wigan Athletic were winners last time out. It was a 1-0 League One home win against Burton Albion at The Brick Community Stadium.

Barrow had a 2-2 draw at Rodney Parade in their previous game. This was away to Newport County in League Two.

In their last FA Cup matches, Wigan were at home to Hemel Hempstead and won on penalties (1-1 AET), with Barrow winning 2-0 away to Spennymoor Town FC.

Wigan Victory on the Cards According to Betting Sites

For this FA Cup encounter, the bookmakers have Wigan Athletic as the -182 favourites to win. This therefore implies that they have a 65% chance of triumphing. The +475 means that Barrow are seen as having the lowest probability of succeeding.

If Wigan beat Barrow by two or more goals, then you would get paid out on the Asian Handicap -1 pick at -112. A one-goal victory would mean you get your stake fully refunded.

If you’re anticipating that two goals or less will be netted throughout the contest, then Under 2.5 Goals is a definite runner. The Both Teams to Score No bet is -139 and it’s ideal if you think at least one side will not score during the ninety minutes.

The top sports betting sites provide a quality service including hundreds of markets being created for every FA Cup game. It’s great for football bettors to choose from so many options.
