We said: Wigan Athletic 1-1 Rotherham United

Wigan may have had to wait for their first win under their new boss, but the fact that they have only lost one of their last six games points to their resilience. Rotherham will be eyeing a place in the top half as the season draws to a close, and the chance to go ahead of an out-of-form Barnsley could motivate them, so expect a close-fought clash on Monday.
