Wigan Athletic vs Hull City: Summer's nearly here
More and more of the fixtures have nothing left in them; this game being a case in point. Wigan can finish between 14th and 17th - so there is a question of prize money, but will that motivate the players? Hull are relegated unless they can find a couple of 8-0 wins and their last match is against Liverpool - who haven't fallen that far.
So Wigan will want to sign off their home season with a win to move them up to the heady heights of 14th - for Hull too many players will be considering their next employers (Jimmy Bullard may well be an expensive exception) to fully express themselves (ie risk injury) here.
