Walsall
DLLDDL ๐
Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Accrington Stanley in League Two competition, Walsall and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
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
From a largely healthy squad, there is just the one fitness worry for the Walsall boss Mat Sadler to contend with. 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.
