Another three points
They have lost just once in the league so far this season and that came on the opening day.
Cheltenham went into the match yesterday on a four-game unbeaten streak and were eager to cause a shock at the DW Stadium.
However, Leam Richardson’s side were on their game and bounced back from their Carabao Cup exit in mid-week in style.
Callum Lang opened the scoring inside the first 10 minutes and the hosts went into half-time a goal to the good.
They then struck early in the second-half through Charlie Wyke, who has now scored three in his last two games.

What next?
Wigan have a big game on Tuesday on home soil against Sheffield Wednesday.
The Owls drew 1-1 away to Ipswich Town yesterday and were denied the win by a late Conor Chaplin goal.
Richardson’s side then travel to Kent next weekend to take on Gillingham away.
The Gills drew 1-1 away at Oxford United yesterday and are in 19th position right now.
