He won't start
Hunt has been training at City for a week he'll be fit and I think he will start
Unless of course they just play 45 mins.Rose & Hunt playing for u21's at Crewe today so can assume they won't be in the squad tomorrow.
1pm, away at Crewewhat time is u21 ko
A draw will be fine, but I really fancy our chances. Two draws will be okay to be honest, but ideally we really could do with beating our rivals if at all possible if we want to be real contenders.
Maybe we should stop bigging them up. This is Walsall and Burton, not Real and Bayern. All due respect and all that but we are at home, unbeaten there and this is League 1. If we play well we are better than both IMO. Let them worry about us. Aim to win both, no holds barred.
Have to agree with this, can't see anything but a convincing victory.3-0 Cov and keeping up the new trend of performing under a bigger crowd and expectation.

Walsall fan here, looking forward to this one.
We haven't really had the best of times at the Ricoh, the 5-1 hammering stands out for me, and I'd hope that we don't get a repeat of that tonight...
We've had a strong start under our new boss Sean O'Driscoll, with 4 wins and 1 defeat (inlcuding the Brentford cup win) with the defeat coming in our last league game, 3-0 against Rochdale. If we play anything like that day, then we could very well be in for a hammering, but if we continue as we have done for most of this season then I would expect a closely fought game which either peters out into a draw, or is decided by a bit of quality from either team.
Your attacking talent is definitely a worry, and I'm looking forward to seeing Sawyers vs Maddison to see how similar they are as number 10s...
We have been very good in our games against the teams higher up the league, off the top of my head we've beaten; Yourselves, Gillingham, Burton, Posh, Millwall and Southend, so as I say it should be a close game.
In terms of a prediction, my head says that in front of a big crowd Cov might just have too much for us going forward but this team has continued to surprise everyone this season and if offered a point now, I would absolutely take it.
Looking forward to seeing the Ricoh reasonably full tonight, as our previous visits have been pretty low-key. Apparently we've sold around 600 advance tickets for tonight, so with walk ups I would imagine just over 1,000 Walsall fans will be there, which should add to the atmosphere!
Good luck for the rest of the season, and next year in The Championship could be fun if us two and Burton go up with the Villa coming down...
Yes and thanks for your post. Good luck for tonight but not too much.
Word has it we are expecting around 15-16k so plus your 1000 then gives you an idea of attendance for tonight.
We have also moved all fans into the same stand now so we have much better atmospheres and games now.
As for the result draw has to be favourite but it as you say may well come down to a moment of class. I have to warn you out front 4 of Cole Maddison, Armstrong and Murphy are just lighting and really are clicking now.
Walsall if you don't mind me saying are probably punching above their weight which is not a Go it's me just being real. I'm just hoping that your loss last time out continues in the league.
