Recent respective form guides
Walsall's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Saddlers have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.
Exeter City's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. A generous 10 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Walsall find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 10 games have yielded only 7 points. Exeter City lie just outside the playoff positions in the Npower League One, picking up 16 from their 10 games so far.

Nothing seems to be going right for the Saddlers at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Grecians come away with an easy victory. Away win
