Wigan without defensive trio

Ryan Taylor joins fellow defenders Arjan de Zeeuw and Matt Jackson on the sidelines for Wigan’s Barclays Premiership clash at Fulham on Monday.

Full-back Taylor broke a leg in a reserve game on Wednesday as he continued his comeback from breaking a bone in his foot earlier in the season.

De Zeeuw (broken collarbone) and Jackson (knee) are again non-starters, while striker David Connolly continues to be plagued by a hamstring injury.

Provisional squad: Filan, Chimbonda, Camara, Johansson, Henchoz, McCulloch, Kavanagh, Francis, Scharner, Teale, Bullard, Ziegler, Baines, Thompson, Roberts, Pollitt.
