Wigan Athletic defeated Stockport County 1-0 in their English Carabao Cup second round match at The Brick Community Stadium. Fraser Murray scored the decisive goal in the 84th minute. Stockport dominated possession with 54.2%, but Wigan were more clinical, converting one of their three shots on target. Stockport struggled to find the net, only managing one shot on target from their ten attempts. Both teams committed 11 fouls, and Stockport received one yellow card.
The AI pre-game prediction correctly anticipated a Wigan Athletic win, although the predicted win probability for Wigan was 40.0%. The AI did not expect a balanced game. Wigan's recent form is mixed, with wins against lower-rated teams and struggles against stronger opposition. Stockport's form is also inconsistent.
This game marked Wigan's second consecutive 1-0 win in the Carabao Cup, showcasing their efficiency in this competition. Stockport had won their previous Carabao Cup match but struggled to replicate that form against Wigan.
Considering previous games, Wigan has struggled against Stockport recently, losing their last home match against them in the league. However, this Carabao Cup win could provide a confidence boost. Both teams face each other again in their next match in the English League One. Given Stockport's higher team rate, Wigan needs to improve their performance to secure another victory.
