Walsall prepare to entertain Millwall at Bescot Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 11 of the 30 previous games, with the Saddlers winning just 10.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Bescot Stadium was just last season, in March 2003, with Millwall inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Saddlers in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides
Walsall's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Saddlers have scored 5, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Millwall's away form is none too clever either, with a marvellous return of five wins and one defeat from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 11 goals for the The Lions, and 3 goals against.
Walsall find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 44 points from their 38 matches. Millwall's total of 62 points from their 37 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Nationwide League Division One.
