Walsall
Scunthorpe United and Walsall, the two bottom-table sides, face each other at Sands Venue Stadium in what is expected to be a close encounter. Despite midweek defeats, both sides are on the right track to secure the League Two survival. The Iron are nine points clear of the relegation zone ahead of Matchday 44, meaning that they should be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash. Both Howe and Spence are pushing for a start for the hosts.
The Saddlers, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back defeats to Colchester and Salford. Given their position in the standings, the visitors should be happy with one point from the match as well, and, taking everything into account, share of spoils is on the cards at Sands Venue Stadium. Under 2.5 goals have been netted in six of the previous eight meetings between the two teams in all competitions.
