Preview: Arsenal vs. Wigan Athletic

FA Cup winners Wigan Athletic must refocus themselves on Premier League survival when they visit Champions League-chasing Arsenal on Tuesday evening.

The Latics stunned Manchester City on Saturday when Ben Watson headed home the winner in added time at Wembley.

Despite their cup success, Wigan are in serious danger of being relegated to the Championship. They lie three points adrift of safety with just two games left, meaning that victories are needed for the Latics to stay in the top flight.

Following the results for Sunderland, Norwich City and Newcastle United, Roberto Martinez's men cannot lose against an Arsenal side also in need of the points as they look to hold on to fourth place ahead of local rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

Gunners manager Arsene Wenger could still be without Kieran Gibbs at left-back, while Olivier Giroud serves the last of a three-game ban, meaning Lukas Podolski should continue up front.

The reverse fixture at the DW Stadium in December went Arsenal's way, with Mikel Arteta scoring a penalty to settle it.
