Arsenal have the opportunity to book their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup this weekend as they face Wigan Athletic at the Emirates Stadium in north London.
The Gunners are in need of a confidence boost as their Premier League title charge seems to be faltering, with a midweek draw at Brentford trimming their advantage to just four points.
Plenty of opportunities remain for them to win silverware this season, with FA Cup, Champions League and Carabao Cup campaigns all very much alive, and Mikel Arteta’s side can take another step closer to booking tickets to Wembley as they face the Latics.
Wigan are in the midst of a challenging season. They sit 22nd in League One, only one point adrift of safety, but relieved manager Ryan Lowe of his duties last week. Glenn Whelan will take to the dugout at the Emirates, then.
The Latics are on a miserable run, too, taking five losses and one draw from their last six outings. Their most recent win came in the cup, though, as they edged past north-west rivals Preston North End 1-0.
Arsenal have not faced Wigan since knocking them out in the semi-finals of this tournament in 2014, when Mikel Arteta scored from the spot in a penalty shootout.
