Latics changed a winning team as manager  Dave Penney recalled Jon Worthington and Danny Whitaker for this afternoon's Coca-Cola League One match against Brighton at Boundary Park.

Worthington, making his first start since damaging ankle ligaments early in the season, replaced Alex Marrow in the centre of midfield while Whitaker came in for Deane Smalley on the right flank as Latics looked to extend their unbeaten run to five matches.

Brighton made one change from their midweek win against Brentford as Seb Carole replaced the injured Kazenga LuaLua in midfield.
