FootyMAD's Walsall Match Preview

History of the Walsall v Leeds United fixture

Leeds face a trip to Walsall at Banks' Stadium on Tuesday evening, hoping to improve on a record of draws against their opponents.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in January 2009, with the Saddlers carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Walsall's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. A generous 9 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Leeds' away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Whites have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 5 goals for and 4 against.

Walsall's total of 4 points from their 2 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League One. Leeds are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 6 points from 2 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Leeds are not doing too bad on their travels, and I think that should continue by a narrow victory at Walsall. Away win

Sequence statistics:
Walsall	Failed to win in previous 5 home matches. Not won in the 2 most recent games.
