Expert Analysis by Omoye ThankGod

The metrics give a narrow advantage to Walsall in what should be an interesting battle. Defensive discipline will likely be the priority for both managers.

History suggests these rivals know firmly how to exploit each other's weaknesses. Stubborn backlines on both sides suggest opportunities will be at a premium. This view is consistent with the long-term performance data of both clubs.
