Our next match prediction takes in an engaging League Two contest involving two teams with playoff aspirations. Chesterfield host Walsall with the Spireites and Saddlers both looking to kick on from their current positions and secure a playoff spot at the very least by the end of the current campaign. 

Paul Cook's Chesterfield currently occupy eighth spot in the L2 table. That means the Spireites are one place outside of the playoff places with 44 points from 28 games played. Walsall currently lie two places above them in the table in sixth, with 48 points from their 27 games played. 

Chesterfield's recent form is somewhat mixed. Their last three games have seen them earn a creditable 0-0 draw at home to leaders Bromley. However, they then went down to a 2-1 defeat away to struggling Newport County last weekend. But in midweek they earned a fine 1-0 win away at promotion-chasing Salford City.

Walsall's recent form is solid, but not unduly impressive. Their best result was probably a 3-1 win at Tranmere Rovers, but since then they have been involved in two  disappointing 0-0 home draws. The first last weekend against Accrington Stanley and they were then held goalless again by Crawley Town in midweek.
