Eighth-placed Aston Villa host 15th-placed Wigan Athletic at Villa Park - the seventh game of their Premier League season.

Agbonlahor flagged offside when he was not. The fans are not happy. No suggestion of bias, obviously, but this stat makes for cheeky reading: Villa have not won in the last five PL matches refereed by Clattenburg.

Long ball for Di Santo to chase into the corner. Warnock does well to take the ball off him and dribble clear. /// Audrey: "looking at all the stats and villa claiming some draws­ this season,a low scoring draw would be fav.but i­ honestly feel we can nick the 3 points 2-1 cmon you­ latics prove me right."

Dunne has been off, changed his boots and come back on again - quick work.

Roberto Martinez’s first PL match as a manager was v Aston Villa at Villa Park – Wigan winning 2-0 on the opening day of the season in August 2009. /// ANDREW: "Wigan are a strong side and Martinez is a top manager­ so Villa will need to perform today to get anything­ from the game. I would predict a draw again today. Not­ sure where our next win is coming from"

Bent with more excellent link-up play after a mistake by Moses to set up Ireland... his strike from the edge of the box is deflected just wide.

A wild effort off target for the Villa by Stiliyan Petrov - but the first signs of adventurous play from the home side in the last minutes bodes well for the match.

Bent nods down a long ball into the mixer and Agbonlahor blazes over! It sat up and he couldn't get over it.

Diame tackled by James Collins as he attacks the left flank. A few tackles flying in as the game heats up.

Dunne with a solid tackle to win the ball from Wigan striker Franco Di Santo and Villa counter at pace... Agbonlahor finds Hutton but he cannot get a ball into the box.

Dunne with a wasteful pass straight into touch but Villa win the ball back from the throw. Hutton chases a long pass down the right but it runs out for a goal-kick.

Van Aanholt with a cross from the left that Shay Given catches comfortably. Composed start to this game from both sides.

Mohamed Diame comes short and dummies a defender. Dunne again makes a tackle to give Wigan a third corner - cleared at the near post this time.

Patrick van Aanholt wins a corner for the Latics. Ben Watson's kick comes off Alan Hutton's thigh and could have gone anywhere, but flies behind for another corner.

Stephen Warnock heads down the left and plays a silky one-two with Stephen Ireland - backheel from the midfielder - but Wigan deal with the danger inside their half.

Victor Moses with a foray in the final third for Wigan. When the cross comes in from the right Richard Dunne deals with it.

Gabriel Agbonlahor ghosts in from the left and has room to shoot. The ball comes off a Wigan body and Ali Al Habsi makes the stop easily enough.

Villa kick us off in the first half and will be attacking the goal to our right.

And out come the teams, led by referee Mark Clattenburg (Tyne & Wear).

Villa Park is bathed in sunshine in what could be the last hot day of the year. The sprinklers still spraying the pitch.

Wigan have won just two of their last 13 away league games (W2 D5 L6). They have also lost their last three league matches but haven’t lost four in a row since October 2008.

The Villans have lost just one of their last 14 league games but they have drawn the last four in a row. Villa are only the third team in PL history to draw five of their first six games (after Ipswich in 1992-93 and Fulham last season).
