Walsall FC have confirmed that this evening's clash with Nigel Clough's Mansfield Town will now kick-off at 6.45pm rather than the originally planned 7.00pm.
No confirmation was given as to why the change has been made however, with temperatures set to drop over the course of the evening it is believed the club are looking to avoid a frozen pitch causing the game to be abandoned.
