Team News: Walsall
In an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s just a single fitness worry for the Walsall boss Mat Sadler to be concerned about. George Hall (unknown injury) misses out for this game.
🔮
Prediction
Here is a game where Barrow might well have a job on their hands to register a score against this Walsall outfit who we think will likely do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We therefore fancy a very even match with a 0-1 winning margin for Walsall when the referee blows for full-time.
Little in this one.
