Fox and Pilkington in line for Wigan return against Brentford

Danny Fox and Anthony Pilkington are back in contention as Wigan host Brentford in the Sky Bet Championship.

Paul Cook’s side beat Bolton 5-2 before the international break and have benefited from the two-week break.

Wigan left-back Fox is back in contention after suffering a knee issue against Derby in March.

Fellow January acquisition Pilkington is also back after a knee complaint of his own.

Brentford manager Thomas Frank has no fresh injury concerns ahead of the trip to the DW Stadium.

Daniel Bentley missed the 1-0 home loss to West Brom a fortnight ago with a shoulder injury, while Rico Henry (foot) and Lewis Macleod (hamstring) were also absent.

Bees manager Frank said: “Everybody is ready so it’s up to me to pick. It could be just too early for some of them to be involved in the squad but it’s very close.

“Now it’s about fitness, form, and performance. Everybody needs to compete to keep their place.”
