Recent respective form guides

Oldham Athletic's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Latics have scored 4, a worringly large 7 have been leaked at the other end.

Walsall's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The Saddlers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 6 goals for and 5 against.

Oldham Ath. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 29 points from 27 matches. Walsall's 37 points from 28 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
