Walsall face Gillingham in an important League Two fixture on Saturday afternoon. The Gills are flying high in the table and three points could take them into first place. Meanwhile, Walsall are in the middle of the league, but a victory could lift them right into the race for a playoff spot. 

Make sure you read our exclusive tip for the game before you look at the latest betting odds. This tip has been put together by our sports betting experts. It assesses the recent form of both teams, as well as several key statistics relating to the game. 

After last Saturday’s humbling 4-0 defeat at then bottom side Sutton United, the Saddlers will be desperate to get back on track. That result means they have just one victory from their last six games, a run that has derailed a fairly positive start to the campaign.

After two consecutive finishes in the bottom half of League Two, Saddlers fans will be keen to see some progression from their side this time around. Victory over one of the top teams in the division will go a long way towards improving spirits at the Bescot.

Despite being third in the table, Gillingham’s recent away form has been nothing short of dreadful. They have lost their last five away games in all competitions, and will need to arrest that form quickly if they want to remain in the top three.

Following the surprise sacking of Neil Harris, the Gills remain without a head coach. Caretaker Keith Millen will take charge on Saturday and hope to build on last week’s impressive 2-1 victory over MK Dons.

Head to Head

Walsall are unbeaten in their last five games against the Gills. This includes victories in the last two meetings at Bescot. Gillingham have only won once at Bescot in the last 31 years. Overall, Gillingham hold a narrow 47-46 lead in the head-to-head.

Our Betting Tip for Today

The current betting odds for the match have Gillingham as slight favourites for the win at 13/8. The draw can be backed at 23/10, with Walsall available at 7/4.

Our betting bonus tip is for a home win. Whilst the Gills are sitting in the top three, their away form is a huge concern, and Walsall can exploit this on Saturday.

It’s very hard to read much into Walsall’s recent form as they seem to veer erratically from one game to the next. However, they do seem to generally perform well against Gillingham and that could give them the edge in what looks like being a tight game.
