Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just one fitness concern for the Walsall gaffer Mat Sadler to contend with due to a largely intact squad. George Hall (unknown injury) misses out.

ℹ️ Team News: Chesterfield

Thanks to a largely healthy squad, there is only the lone fitness problem for the Chesterfield gaffer Paul Cook to be concerned with. John Fleck (Shin injury) won’t be playing here.

✨ Prediction

In our opinion, Chesterfield will have to work hard as a team to score goals against this Walsall outfit who we think will score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We’re therefore expecting a very competitive game with a 1-0 victory for Walsall at the end of the 90.

Let’s see how it plays out.
