Wigan
- Following a 5-0 defeat at Brentford in their last Championship game, Preston are likely to give chances to players who started the EFL Cup win at Bournemouth.
- Simon Makienok, who scored a hat-trick in that match, will have done his chances no harm, while Chris Humphrey could keep his place.
- Jermaine Beckford is still struggling with a hamstring injury, while Stefan Payne, Stevie May and Calum Woods are long-term absentees.
- Alex Gilbey is out after coming off injured in the 0-0 draw at Fulham, with 18-year-old Luke Burke set to step in at right-back.
- Midfielder Nick Powell is in contention for a recall after returning from injury as a substitute last weekend.
- Reece James, Andy Kellett, Kyle Knoyle and Donervon Daniels are all absent.
