Recent respective form guides
Southend United may have lost only 1 of their last six home games, but the other 5 have resulted in drawn games. The Shrimpers's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.
Walsall's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Saddlers have hit 4 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Southend Utd. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 34 points from their 36 games thus far. Walsall's 47 points from 36 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.
