Walsall v Leeds United - Match Preview


By Batfastard the Magnificent

Leeds United hope to make it four wins on the bounce tonight as they travel to a tricky fixture at the Bank's Stadium to face a Walsall side who have also made a good start to the season.

Simon Grayson is expected to name an unchanged team from the one who beat Wycombe on Saturday with Andy Hughes again deputising for hamstring victim Ben Parker at left back.

United will be hoping to make it four wins on the bounce, but will be up against a Walsall side who have also been playing well. They kicked off the season with a credible 1-0 away victory at Brighton and (although beaten 2-1 in the League Cup by Accrington Stanley) followed up in the league with a fighting 2-2 draw at home to Southend, despite having 10 men for most of the second half. New boy Sam Parkin opened his account for Walsall with a late penalty.

So, it will be a tough test for Grayson's men who have been winning despite not quite firing on all cylinders as yet. Hopefully the lads will click into gear and continue their excellent run of results.
