Premium Tip<\/th>Odds<\/th>Why we\u2019re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Walsall to win<\/strong><\/td>5\/6<\/td>Walsall have made an unbeaten start to the season and look the more reliable side heading into this clash. Their home form should give them another advantage against an Accrington team that can make games scrappy.
Accrington have made recent meetings difficult, but Walsall’s stronger start makes them the side to back. At 5\/6, a home win looks the best play.<\/td><\/tr>
Under 2.5 goals<\/strong><\/td>8\/11<\/td>Neither side has shown much to suggest this will turn into a high-scoring contest. Accrington are capable of slowing the game down, while Walsall’s organised approach should keep things under control.
With the visitors likely to make this a battle, under 2.5 goals at 8\/11 looks a strong option.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Walsall go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Walsall drew 0-0 with Grimsby last time out, a solid point. The Bescot is a tough venue and a home win is the aim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Saddlers are well-organised and dangerous at home. Three points against Accrington is the target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Accrington go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Accrington were beaten 2-0 at Exeter last time out, a poor result. They travel to the Midlands needing a response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stanley carry a threat but were second best last time. A trip to Walsall is a demanding one.<\/p>\n\n\n
