Match Stats: Bristol Rovers 1 Walsall 0

Here are the Match Stats from the Saddlers' League Two meeting with Bristol Rovers.

The Saddlers arrived at the match on the back of a run of four consecutive defeats, including a midweek loss at home to Bradford City, and in search of a much-needed return to winning ways.

The match was a close run affair, with efforts on goal being something of a premium. But, despite enjoying a man advantage after Pirates man Luca Hoole saw red in the first forty-five, the Saddlers ultimately suffered a fifth defeat on the bounce as Aaron Collins netted the only goal of the game in the ninetieth minute.
