Walsall are one of the best teams in League Two at the start of the season and are currently 3rd in the table behind Barrow and Gillingham. It is still too early to answer the question whether this team has the strength to reach promotion and even fight for promotion, but what has been seen so far is promising. They are also victorious in the EFL Cup and the EFL Trophy, so it is quite justified that the ambitions are increasing.
In the previous two rounds, Leicester remained unbeaten in the Premier League. They are still winless in the elite, but there is a definite hint that they could soon reach 3 points. In the first match of the EFL Cup, they easily defeated Tranmere. This is a good chance for them to reach the 1/8 finals, and another victory would raise their confidence before important matches in the Premier League.
Walsall vs Leicester pick: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
The home team has won 6 previous matches at this stadium and it is clear that they are in excellent shape, but it is also obvious that in this match they will have the toughest opponent so far. In January last year, these two teams met in the FA Cup and Leicester won 1-0. Walsall could offer somewhat stronger resistance, but it is unlikely that they will manage to be solid in the defensive field. We expect the visiting team to win, but with at least one goal from the home side
