Arsenal boss Wenger won't underestimate Wigan

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says there'll be no underestimating Wigan Athletic tonight.

Wigan seem to always find their league form when it matters over the closing stages of the season, with seven from the last nine in 2011/12 - including a memorable 2-1 triumph at the Emirates Stadium.

"Wigan is a bit repeated every year, they recover always in the period where everybody says they are finished," said Wenger.

"Of course they get out in recent years every time - just - but when you play with that fire every year it can be dangerous.

"What Wigan have done as well is always discover players, you have to give them credit for that, with a small budget they find very good players and so that is sad of course if they go."
