Match Stats: Walsall 0 Northampton Town 1

Here are the Match Stats from the Saddlers' League Two meeting with Northampton Town.

Arriving at the match on the back of a run of five consecutive defeats, Matthew Taylor and his Saddlers were in desperate need of a return to winning ways as they welcomed the Cobblers to Banks's Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The match got off to a slow start with ten minutes being played before the inevitable happened as Louis Appéré tapped the ball beyond Carl Rushworth as the defence failed to deal with a Mitch Pinnock free-kick.
