Shrewsbury Town will host Wigan Athletic on the final day of EFL League One action on Saturday.
The visitors are yet to secure the League One title as they faltered in midweek to a 3-2 defeat at the hands of Portsmouth. Subsequently, the gap at the top has been cut to a meager two points, making the final day of action all the more interesting.
Nearest rivals Rotherham also missed a chance to go level on points with Wigan after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Sunderland.

Wigan are winless in their last five and any result apart from a win could potentially allow Rotherham to snatch the title.
