Blackpool AHEAD at Old Trafford - that means they're getting very close to safety. Can Wigan yet join them?

JONES CLOSE WITH A HEADER! He gets to Delap's throw, but there are enough Stoke shirts around him to force him to nod wide. Another warning for Wigan.
56'
Walters appealing furiously for a penalty against Figueroa, who slid in on the edge of box - but Marriner not interested in that one... throw for Delap nonetheles...

N'Zogbia tries a chipped cross into the box but Begovic gathers - as he clears McCarthy commits a foul and picks up the second booking of the match.
54'
Good run from Walters and it's Boyce who once again sweeps up for the visitors. The Latics can be thankful for his committed display today.
53'
Jones wins a header from a long ball, but it is just out of Walters' path on this occasion.

Much better from Wigan! After a fairly limp first half they're moving much better and N'Zogbia is very close to threading a killer pass into the box for Sammon...
51'
N'Zogbia flashes a cross-come-shot high and wide. Not quite what was required.
50'
Birmingham are behind at Spurs, which puts Wigan 18th - just one place from safety...
49'
Much more purpose about Wigan in this half. Not much quality yet, but you sense that they've had a stern talking to in the interval.
48'
Pennant muscled out by three Wigan shirts and the visitors try to get forward.

Rodallega's shot bounces the way of N'Zogbia, who nearly scores right away! But just as we're reflecting on how close that was to a crucial goal, the assistant's flag goes up - it was offside and wouldn't have counted.

HALF-TIME: Head tennis to finish off the first half, which ends goalless. The contest has petered out after Stoke's early dominance - but as it stands, a draw is not enough for Wigan. With four teams on 40 points there is currently everything to play for in the second half.

N'Zogbia takes a quick throw but cannot quite get a Wigan attack going. One minute of stoppages to play.
44'
McCarthy down after Jones collides into him chasing down a clearance. He's back on to his feet very unsteadily.
43'
The situation is starting to look very promising for any side in trouble who can win their game today - but Wigan haven't shown much up front so far.
42'
Goal alerts - Wigan 19th after Blackpool level through Adam at Old Trafford and Wolves concede a second goal at home to Blackburn to drop into the bottom three.
41'
The ball is played short to N'Zogbia, who tries to dribble his way into some space on the edge of the area before taking the ball a step too far and running it out for a goal kick.
40'
Wigan have a corner as Boyce's delivery is blocked out on the far side. Here's a chance for the visitors.
