Prediction: 1-1
Scunthorpe
Walsall will look to make amends for a 3-1 loss to Forest Green when they take on Scunthorpe on Tuesday evening. The Saddlers are determined to record their first win of the season, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Iron. Head coach Matthew Simon Taylor should stick to the 4-4-2 formation, with Phillips and Wilkinson up front. Scunthorpe, on the other hand, head into the midweek game following a goalless draw with Rochdale.
Since the Iron are eyeing their first victory of the season as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Ryan Loft, who limped off with injury at the weekend, is unlikely to feature in Tuesday’s clash. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in three of their previous four meetings in the League Two.

His primary position is centre-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as a right-back as well. His preferred foot is right.

He scored his first goal for the Saddlers in the Northampton Town clash as well, helping the team pick up all three points from the PTS Academy Stadium clash.
