Match Preview
Walsall were left frustrated against League Two basement boys Rochdale in gameweek six, attempting 24 shots but failing to find the back of the net. Lee Grant's side are unbeaten in the league this season but are looking to snap a run of three consecutive draws.
George Byers scored a penalty on his return to first-team action last weekend as Port Vale beat Exeter City 1-0 at Vale Park. That result was the first win of the season for the recently relegated side, lifting them out of the bottom two in the standings.
