Walsall, Recent FormThe 2-0 home defeat to Stockport County will not have sat easily with the Walsall squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
Manager Michael Flynn will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 7 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Poundland Bescot Stadium, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. With a defensive record that shows one or more goals given away in 8 of their 11 home matches so far this season, Flynn will not be happy with his squad's capabilities at keeping a clean sheet at home.
They have had an excellent run of form at Poundland Bescot Stadium recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Danny Johnson will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 11 goals in Walsall's 22 league games this season.
Mansfield Town, Recent FormMansfield Town have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 2-1 away win against Hartlepool United in their previous league match.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. They have shown some resilient performances away from home of late with 3 clean sheets in their last 6 matches away from home.
With an unbeaten league tally of 5 games from 6, their recent form should be viewed positively, especially with 3 wins thrown in.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Mansfield Town, Will Swan will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 2-1 win for Mansfield Town.
The Stags will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Walsall having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 7 meetings.
Walsall has lost the last 2 times they've faced Mansfield in the league.
With no real injury worries, Walsall manager Michael Flynn will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Mansfield manager Nigel Clough has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
