In an intriguing FA Cup Round 2 fixture, National League side York City face off against League One outfit Wigan Athletic with both sides vying to advance ahead in the tie.
After a toothless draw against Chester City in the first round, York City got the better of their opposition in the replay with the latter winning 2-1. Lenell John-Lewis bagged himself a brace in the previous fixture and the forward would be hoping to produce a similar performance if they want to march ahead in the competition.
Wigan Athletic, on the other hand, netted two goals past Exeter City in the second-half without any reply as they cruised to the next round of the FA Cup. While they are hovering around the middle of the table in League One, the visit to York City should be a routine fixture for them with the visitors yet to lose against the home side in their history.
