Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Following a 2-1 loss to Carlisle United, Fleetwood will look to return to winning ways in the League Two when they take on Walsall on Matchday 29. The Cod Army aim to keep their playoffs hopes alive, but they will have a big fish to fry against the league leaders. January signing Harrison Neal is pushing for his first start, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Saddlers, on the other hand, are leading the chase for automatic promotion. Walsall are eyeing their eighth away win of the process and given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Jamille Matt is rated doubtful for the visiting side and the 35-year-old will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. Danny Johnson is widely expected to sneak into the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Fleetwood):
Known for their attacking style of play, Fleetwood Town are a professional football club based in Fletwood, Lancashire. The Fishermen play their home matches at Highbury Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 5,327 (2,672 seated), with the team wearing red and white shirts in home matches.
On the other hand, Fleetwood footballers are dressed in yellow when playing on the travels. The original club was founded back in 1908 under the name of Fleetwood FC and 69 years later they were re-established as Fleetwood Town F.C. In 1998 the club was renamed to Fleetwood Wanderers after the second reformation.
Legendary England footballer Joey Barton is considered one of the club’s most notable coaches. Barton, who was known for his incidents on the field, has been in charge since June 2, 2018. Neighbouring club Blackpool are regarded as one of Fleetwood’s main rivals. The Fishermen have built up rivalries with Morecambe and Preston North End as well.
