Wigan Athletic can’t rely on luck in Championship relegation battle – Balogun

Leon Balogun has urged Wigan Athletic to be battle ready and focus on their performances as they fight to maintain their Championship status.

Paul Cook’s men are yet to win a game since their 1-0 victory over Leeds United on February 1 and their last three games ended in two draws and a defeat.

Despite suffering just a defeat in their previous five matches, Wigan are 22nd in the second division with 31 points after 33 games and a win against Millwall on Saturday would boost their survival chances.
