With one victory and one draw, newcomers Hull City's season started on a positive note. Wigan Athletic can't say the same, having lost both of their first two matches.
Hull and Wigan have met only three times before, but never in the Premiership. Their most recent meeting was in August 2007, when Hull won 1-0 to advance to the next round of the League Cup.
Midfielder George Boateng of Hull is out with a thigh injury while Marlon King has to miss out on this match as he is not allowed to play versus his parent club.
Wigan has goalkeeper Chris Kirkland return from injury but could very well be without the injured Paul Scharner and Jason Koumas.
