Wigan host Wolves in the Championship tonight.

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Walter Zenga has made just two change for this evening’s trip to Wigan Athletic in the Championship.

Despite hosting leaders Norwich City on Saturday, the Italian has opted for consistency having recorded back-to-back league wins against Newcastle United and Brentford respectively.

Saturday’s scorer Ivan Cavaleiro replaces Jon Dadi Bovarsson in attack, after the Iceland international failed to travel, while Silvio takes the place of Cameron Borthwick-Jackson in defence.

The Black Country club face two of their old boys in Nathan Byrne and Adam Le Fondre, who both start for Wigan, with another two, Michael Jacobs and Craig Davies, named on the bench.

Le Fondre, who spent last season on loan at Molineux, is one of two changes made by Latics manager Gary Caldwell, with David Perkins taking Jacobs’ place.

A win for Wolves would likely lift them into a play-off place for the first time since late August, while Wigan will remain in the bottom three unless they win and Blackburn Rovers are beaten by Sheffield Wednesday.

Here is how the two teams line up for tonight’s Championship encounter at the DW Stadium.
