Wigan have no new injury concerns following their FA Cup final win over Manchester City.
Jean Beausejour may return after missing the match at Wembley, but Maynor Figueroa, Ivan Ramis and Ronnie Stam remain on the sidelines.
MATCH PREVIEW
Wigan manager Roberto Martinez believes his side's historic FA Cup win over Manchester City will not get in the way of what is arguably an equally important fixture against Arsenal at the Emirates on Tuesday.Martinez wants his relegation-threatened side to forget the elation of their Wembley win and concentrate on the two wins his side realistically need to prolong their eight-year stay in the Premier League.
"Winning this trophy is very special and that takes the football club into a different richness in terms of what we are and our tradition", he said.
"It was a moment that changed the perception of our club for millions of people outside the UK and that is really positive but it doesn't need to affect the next two matches.
"The memories will live forever but we need to focus on the next two games."
Results firmly went against Martinez's side at the weekend, but the Spaniard doesn't necessarily think this is a disadvantage as he says it will help focus his players' minds knowing that only victories against Arsenal and then at home to Aston Villa on the final day will be good enough to survive.
"I think we are fortunate in terms of results because if you are relying on other people to do your job that doesn't work in football," he said.
"We are very fortunate in that we are third from bottom but if we win the six points we don't have to rely on anyone".
Their opponents Arsenal will be just as motivated after Tottenham's win at Stoke lifted Spurs above the Gunners into fourth.
It's a position they can regain with a victory over Wigan and their manager Arsene Wenger has urged his players to "finish the job" to secure yet another season of Champions League football.
"Both teams have to go for it, it's a huge game for both of us," he said.
"We have been very consistent, we've been on a remarkable run and our destiny is in our hands.
"Two months ago our destiny was not in our own hands. Today it is. So let's finish the job."
