Tom Davies (22') and Kristian Dennis (87') scored for Tranmere Rovers.

Walsall

After tasting defeat last time out to Accrington Stanley in League Two competition, Walsall will be hoping to turn things around here.
Ben Woods (33') scored for Accrington Stanley.
The numbers tell their own story, and Walsall have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 10 goals in total. Defensively, Walsall could really do with shoring things up. That pattern might not follow through into this match, however.
Pre-game facts show that Walsall:
- are winless against Crewe Alexandra when they have played them away from home in the previous 5 league games. Not good.
- are without a win away from home in their last 7 league matches.

Team News: Walsall
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group of players, there is just the lone fitness issue for the Walsall boss Mat Sadler to be concerned about. George Hall (unknown injury) wonโt be in action.

Prediction
We feel that Crewe Alexandra will need things to go their way to get anything against this Walsall lineup who will likely manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.
Weโre therefore tipping a very competitive game with a 0-1 win for Walsall at the end of the 90.
Hopefully itโs a good one.
