Wigan boss Martinez to take charge of game No150 tonight

Wigan Athletic's clash with Swansea City will be a huge game for manager Roberto Martinez in more ways than one.

Martinez wants to celebrate his 150th Premier League game in style tonight - by taking Wigan another step closer to safety.

The Spaniard said: "It's an incredible number - 150 games in the Premier League at Wigan. Well, there are not many managers who have done that!

"It's an incredible thing at 39 to have that honour and privilege.

"But football is not about managers or landmarks, it's about reaching our targets.

"And, if we could get a win, that would be the best celebration yet."
