Match Stats: Walsall 2 Bristol Rovers 1

Here are the Match Stats from the Saddlers' League Two meeting with Bristol Rovers.
Walsall returned to Sky Bet League Two action on Saturday afternoon as they welcomed Darrell Clarke's Bristol Rovers to the Pallet-Tracket Bescot Stadium.

The first goal of the game went the way of the visitors, when Fabrizio Cavegn continued his fine spell of form by scoring his fourth goal in as many games.

Walsall went on to level the scores midway through the second half when Aaron Pressley netted his third goal of the season with a header from a Vincent Harper cross.

The Saddlers went into the lead just nine minutes after when Pressley added another goal to his tally, a great comeback from the Reds.
