If Walsall wanted an easy game to bounce back from two consecutive defeats, this isn’t it. As Walsall go into the game on the back of a series of shaky results, Stockport have become the form team of the league, yes even better than Hartlepool. In fact only the Saddlers can boast a better home record. In fact since on loan Dingle Wayne Hennessey has been between the sticks he has let to conceed a goal,630 minutes in total. Stockport have won there last seven games without a goal against and hve only let in two in there last ten games. Easy it isn’t

Stockport County Team News:
No real excitement in the Stockport ranks although Tes Bramble is pushing for a return to the starting lineup. As Adam Proudlock may return from injury to the bench. Striker Anthony Elding is in rich vein of form up front with Andrew Pilkington at the moment.
In Defence Rose, Williams, Owen and Clare have been outstanding. Whilst in midfield you’ve got the general Jason Taylor you’ve got David Poole and Adam Griffin giving the wide option, and they have just added Dominic Blizzard from Watford who has done the ‘ugly’ job in the last two games. Failing that you’ve only got Tony Dinning on the bench
