Sports Mole previews Wigan Athletic's crunch relegation clash with Swansea City at the DW Stadium.

Wigan Athletic are aiming for back-to-back victories to aid their fight against relegation when the Latics host Swansea City tomorrow night.

Roberto Martinez's side gave their survival bid a huge boost last weekend with a late 3-2 win over West Bromwich Albion and will move out of the bottom three with a win over Swansea.

The Latics are likely to be without Jean Beausejour for the relegation battle after he suffered a hamstring strain at The Hawthorns on Saturday.

Michael Laudrup's visitors are without a win in their last six matches and are without top scorer Michu for the rest of the campaign.

Swansea are still aiming for a top-10 finish but have taken just three points from a possible 21 since beating Newcastle United at the beginning of March.

Recent Form:

Wigan: WDLLDW

Swansea: LLDDLD

Possible starting lineups:

Wigan: Robles, Boyce, Caldwell, Golobart, Stam, McArthur, McCarthy, Scharner, Gomez, McManaman, Kone

Swansea: Vorm, Davies, Chico, Williams, Rangel, Britton, De Guzman, Dyer, Routledge, Hernandez, Moore

Sports Mole says: 2-1
