Prediction: 1-2
Mansfield
Following a 2-0 loss to Stockport County, Walsall will look to start a new winning run in League Two when they take on Mansfield Town in the round 25. The Saddlers dropped to 13th place in the standings, but a win over the Yellows could see them move closer to the playoffs berth. There are no fresh selection worried in the home team, but both Maddox and James-Taylor could be recalled to the starting XI.
The visiting side, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Hartlepool. Mansfield are only five points behind automatic promotion places, meaning that Sunday’s clash is of big importance for the away team. Since Walsall struggled at the back in the midweek defeat, we are tempted to put our money on Nigel Clough’s troops. Ollie Clarke limped off with injury against the Pools, with George Lapslie likely to step up.
