Tonight's EFL Cup 3rd round match will be Wigan's challenge against last year's runners-up Manchester United at home. Wigan are only in the lower reaches of the English League One, and their offense is weak, so they will definitely play defensively against the strongest team in the world. The Red Devils' performance is inconsistent and they have a lot of injuries, plus it is customary to stay in front of and behind the ball in the EFL Cup, so they might as well go after it again with a draw at halftime.

Wigan used to be the 'invincible powerhouse' of the Premier League, winning the EFL Cup in 2013 after beating Manchester City, but unfortunately things have gone from bad to worse since then, with Wigan dropping to 18th place in the First Division. Wigan are now coached by the EFL Cup champion Maloney, and their recent form is mediocre. They have won one, drawn two and lost three of their last six matches, scoring five goals, five of which were by two goals or less, and both of their last two EFL Cup matches against weaker sides Exeter and York City were narrow victories, which is a clear sign of a weak defense.
Manchester United, the "8" of the EPL, has a special "frequency" this season, when you are dead to them, they will surprise you again, but whenever they give you a hope, they are always disappointing, such as the previous 4 consecutive matches without a win and eaten white fruit, and then they suddenly burst out of a game to win against Astronauts 3-2, so hot to the point of fainting, and when they think they have eaten the momentum of victory and catching up, then they lose to Nordinham Forest in the last game, which is so hard to understand.
Manchester United has always been in the lineup of injured soldiers are not few, including Harry Maguire, Rao Kisuoer, Vitolian Di Luofu and Mason Monte, even if the goalkeeper O'Na Na delayed to return to Cameroon's national team to play in the African Cup of Nations, will stay to play the next league match against Tottenham Hotspur most of the time, this game will be put away, it is expected that the main force of the Johnnie Ivans, Gisdian Alichen, Rashuofu, and so on, will be brought with the Man'ao, Ghan Huala, such as the youngsters to come to play.
