Wigan Athletic
New manager Roberto Martinez will look to have Wigan playing a more aesthetically-pleasing style this season. He is likely to switch to the 4-3-3 formation that his Swansea side played with such success last season, and has brought with him midfielder Jordi Gomez and striker Jason Scotland. Colombian Hugo Rodallega has had a few months to settle in to the Premier League, and therefore much will be expected of the powerful striker, who showed promise initially. Defensively, Wigan were very strong last season, quite an achievement for a side who regularly feature Titus Bramble. Chris Kirkland is just one of a plethora of players who this writer reckons have a chance of pushing for a World Cup place.
VerdictL As long as Martinez's side pick up points early on, they should be comfortably safe. Should they stay clear of injuries, then they might just sneak a Europa League spot
