Walsall
Port Vale and Walsall square off against each other at Vale Park in what is expected to be an exciting League Two derby. The Valiants are after their fifth home win of the process and they are determined to retain top position in the standings. Even though there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, Ronan Curtis should sneak into the starting eleven after getting his name on the scoresheet in a midweek draw with Cheltenham Town.
The Saddlers, on the other hand, aim to overtake Port Vale in top position, but seeing that the Valiants have suffered only one loss at home this term, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. As both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Saturday’s derby, a low-scoring affair is on the horizon. Mathew John Sadler is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Notts County in midweek.
Highlighted Team (Port Vale):
Nicknamed the Valiants, Port Vale are a professional club that compete in the League Two. Port Vale welcome their rivals at Vale Park, and they wear white and black kit when playing in front of home fans. Yellow, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The Valiants’ home ground, which was built in 1950, can hold up to 49,768 people. Championship side Stoke City are seen as one of the club’s fiercest rivals, but their rivalry is pretty healthy. The two teams first met on December 2, 1882, with the Potters emerging triumphant (1-0).
The Valiants maintain a rivalry with fellow League 2 club Crewe Alexandra as well. Speaking of the club’s titles, it has to be noted that Port Vale have won Football League Trophy on two occasions (1993, 2001). A 9-1 win over Chesterfield from September 24, 1932 is the club’s biggest triumph.
