Salford
Walsall will look to recover from a heavy 5-0 loss to MK Dons when they take on Salford City in the League Two round 42. The Saddlers are eager to put an end to their four-game winless run and a triumph over Salford will see them keep their playoffs hopes alive. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both David Okagbue and Dohervorn Daniels should drop to the bench following their under-par performances against the Dons.
The Lions, on the other hand, are safe for now as they are sitting in 20th place in the standings, eleven points clear of the relegation zone. Taking everything into account, home win should be considered as Walsall are eyeing a top-seven finish. All McLennan, Hendry, and N’Mai are pushing for a start, speaking of the visiting team. Earlier this season Walsall defeated Salford 2-1.
