Opta / Michael Lintorn / 23 February 2012 / Leave a Comment

Gabriel Agbonlahor should be fit to face one of his favourite opponents

Both of these teams are better on the road than at home, and this is a fixture that tends to finish in the favour of the visitors too...

Villa's win earlier this season was the first time in 11 Premier League meetings that the home side had won this fixture.

Only against Everton (six goals) has Agbonlahor scored more often than against Wigan (5).

Aston Villa have lost just one of their last seven Premier League meetings with Wigan (W4 D2 L1).

Wigan have won none of their last 10 Premier League games at the DW Stadium (W0 D4 L6).

The Latics have scored only eight goals in total in their last 10 home Premier League games.

Aston Villa have lost just one of their last six Premier League away games (W3 D2 L1).

35% of Wigan's goals have come from shots outside the box, the highest percentage in the top flight.

Villa have only kept one clean sheet in their last 12 Premier League matches.

Wigan have only kept one clean sheet in their last 22 top flight games.

32% of the goals Aston Villa have conceded have come from corners, a higher percentage than any other team.
