Wigan Athletic manager Owen Coyle has retained goalkeeper Lee Nicholls in his starting lineup for their Europa League clash against Zulte Waregem.

Scott Carson is still recovering from an ankle problem, so Nicholls keeps his place between the posts for the Latics.

However, there are five changes made to the hosts' lineup as James McArthur, Thomas Rogne, James McClean and Jordi Gomez have all returned.

Meanwhile, Belgian club Zulte have Thorgan Hazard, the brother of Chelsea's Eden Hazard who is on loan from the Blues, in the first XI.

Wigan Athletic: Nicholls, Crainey, Rogne, McCann, McClean, Gomez, McManaman, McArthur, Boyce, Powell, Barnett
Subs: Pollitt, Shotton, Watson, Holt, Espinoza, Beausejour, Fortune

Zulte Waregem: Bossut, De Fauw (Capt), Colpaert, Habibou, Kums, Hazard, Skulason, Conte, Duplus, D'Haene, Malanda
Subs: Bruzzese, Verboom, Sylla, N'Diaye, Caceres, Godeau, Bongonda
