Live blog: Wigan Athletic v Preston North End

Corner comes in and it’s somehow bundled over the top via the Wigan bar off Riis. Half-time needed now!

Wow Ben Amos, that’s the best double save we’ll see all season. Right on HT, Troy Parrott clean through, fantastic stop, rebound goes to Emil Riis, has to score, Amos somewhere flicks the ball over the top. WOW!

Alan Browne in the book for Preston after cutting McClean down as he shaped to shoot.

Massive blow for Latics...Jack Whatmough - who played all but about half an hour of last year’s league campaign - is off with a leg injury. Jason Kerr on.

Big chance for Preston...Whatmough slips and allows Emil Riis to run in on goal...he shoots towards the far post but it’s wide of the target...and just in front of the inrushing Robbie Brady...let-off...

Whatmough okay to continue, but Madley won’t let him back on to the field until Preston have crossed the ball in...ends up over the bar, but Leam not happy.

Max Power booked for a tactical foul...Jack Whatmough down in the PNE half, Bobby Madley opted not to stop the game, the Latics man decided he had to.

Bouncing ball in the Preston box, Josh Magennis volleys well over.

James McClean shoots just wide

...Preston can’t clear the corner and Whatmough’s shot is deflected wide...
