Walsall’s reward for advancing to the second round of the League Cup is a home game against League Two side Huddersfield Town. The two face off on Tuesday and here we have the preview and a prediction of the match.
Walsall’s season so far has carried mixed signals. After starting off with a 1-0 home win over Morecambe, they needed penalties to eliminate Exeter City in the League Cup first round. In that game, they scored in stoppage time to force a 1-1 draw and on to the spot kicks.
They would then thump Swindon Town 4-0 away from home in a League Two game. When they seemed to be getting a rhythm, Walsall fell 1-0 away to Tranmere Rovers in their latest game. This Tuesday game will be the first between the two sides since 2012.
Huddersfield Town will come into this game as favorites. They haven't lost to Walsall in the last nine meetings. Their only loss in 12 outings against Walsall dates back to 2007.
The visitors are enjoying a superb start to the season and will feel bullish coming into this encounter. The Terriers are on four wins in as many matches so far in the season and they’ve kept three clean sheets.
To this stage, Huddersfield have conceded just one goal, in their 2-1 win against Stevenage, and are joint top in League One. In the first round of this competition, Michael Duff’s side blanked Morecambe 3-0 at home.
Having played and won all their last three matches at home, Duff will be hoping his charges can display the same effort on the road.
