Two sides that were promoted from League One together last season, Paul Cook’s Wigan team will travel to the New York Stadium on Tuesday night when they kick off their EFL Cup campaign.
Starting with Paul Warne’s Rotherham side, after coming up through the playoffs last season, many had hoped that The Reds’ campaign would pan out better than two years ago. Finishing that campaign with the lowest points tally in Championship history, it has been a mixed bag for the hosts. Although they managed to scrape a 1-0 win over Ipswich over the weekend, Brentford did put five past them on the opening day and they could struggle against a confident Latics outfit.
As for Paul Cook’s Wigan side, although the visitors are coming off the back of a late 3-2 loss to Aston Villa, it has been an impressive start for The Latics after being promoted from League One last year. Beating Sheffield United and putting three past them on the opening matchup one man to watch for The Latics will be playmaker and former Manchester United man Nick Powell. After fighting off interest from a number of Premier League sides, Wigan have managed to keep hold of their most creative player and the 24-year-old has impressed at the start of the new season, he now has two in two and will fancy his chances of carrying on his record on Tuesday
