We say: Tranmere Rovers 0-1 Wigan Athletic

 Although Wigan will be fighting to finish top of Group D, in reality there is little at stake in this game, meaning we are likely to see a low intensity encounter play out in Merseyside. Wigan should have enough about them to earn all three points and leapfrog Fleetwood in the process, with Tranmere having much bigger fish to fry in League Two this weekend. Read more.
