Walsall welcomed the Super Whites to Poundland Bescot Stadium on Saturday afternoon as the two sides battled it out for three crucial points as they look to drag themselves away from the League Two drop zone.
The Saddlers were the side to grab the opening goal of the game as Jamille Matt, who had replaced Isaac Hutchinson at half-time, popped the ball home after Donervon Daniels had found him with a superb pass.
