Wigan Athletic vs Hull City Live Odds, Preview – Premier League

The soccer premier league match between Wigan Athletic and Hull City will kick off on today, i.e. on 03 May 3, 2010 at 13:30 UK. The match will takes place at The DW Stadium, Wigan, United Kingdom.

Wigan manager Roberto Martinez is likely to be without Hendry Thomas and Marcelo Moreno for the visit of Hull to the DW Stadium.

Thomas has missed the last four matches with a quad injury and the midfielder is yet to resume full training.
Striker Moreno came off in the first half with a calf problem against West Ham last weekend and is now nursing his hamstring.

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan insists staying in the Barclays Premier League has to be the club's goal again next season.

Wigan Athletic have only performed averagely at home, winning 3 and losing 2 of their last six. The Latics's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.

The away form of Hull City is pretty dire, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. The Tigers have conceded 14 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.

Whelan, who has seen the club spectacularly climb the pyramid from the backwaters of non-league football to the top flight appears to have lost none of his enthusiasm despite a roller-coaster ride.

Hull striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink could return to the side.

Soccer betting probe nets another official

POLICE in eastern China have detained a football club manager in a nationwide crackdown on soccer betting that has involved several executives and officials from the football association.

The man, identified by police only as L, was detained yesterday, one year after he left Hai Li Feng soccer club in Qingdao, Shandong Province. Other club officials are also under investigation, according to Modern Express today.

Hai Li Feng came under the spotlight after a notorious match with a Sichuan team when the club's players attempted several times to score their own goals.

Police said, however, that they are not investigating that match but are focusing on an alleged gambling syndicate that operated in 2005 and 2006, said an anonymous insider quoted by the newspaper.

The insider said Hai Li Feng was considered the top team at the beginning of every season in China's Premier League, yet their performances collapse at the second half in every match.

China Football Association said any clubs involved in any forms of gambling will be relegated, China News Service reported today.
