Hartlepool United, Recent FormThe 1-0 home defeat to Newport County will not have sat easily with the Hartlepool United squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
It seems pretty certain that Keith Curle will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 9 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at The Suit Direct Stadium. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a poor run of form at The Suit Direct Stadium recently, losing 3 of their last 6 home games and managing only 1 win. Their performance in the league at The Suit Direct Stadium this season has been disappoinitng to date, winning just 3 of 16 league games.
Walsall, Recent FormWalsall were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 0-0 draw against Crewe Alexandra.
Manager Michael Flynn will be pleased with his team's recent defensive record, having conceded just 3 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have concerns that his team are not scoring many goals, and therefore dropping points. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. It's fair to say they have produced a number of good defensive performances away from home, with 3 clean sheets in their last 6 matches on the road.
Having drawn their last 5 and failing to win any of their last 7 league games, The Saddlers will be keen to grab all 3 points in this fixture.
After a good 4-0 win for Walsall in this pair's last league encounter, Hartlepool United will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Hartlepool have managed to keep a clean sheet against The Saddlers in each of their previous 2 meetings at The Suit Direct Stadium.
Hartlepool has lost the last 2 times they've faced Walsall in the league.
With no real injury worries, Hartlepool manager Keith Curle will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Walsall manager Michael Flynn has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
