Walsall will be taking their search for consistency to Doncaster tonight in an attempt to stretch their run away from home to three wins on the trot. Weird, isn’t it?

Richard Money’s problem this season seems to be that the team he has created is set up to play well away from home. They can stay focussed, they can be organised and compact and can keep their shape and, despite protestations from a few, they have enough pace in the side in places to be able to score on the break, as they did on Saturday. How he is going to change things so we can do as well whilst having to attack more at home is the big question now. You cannot depend on picking up enough points away from home.

It’s difficult to see any changes being made from Saturday’s successful team of:

Ince, Wrack, Dann, Gerrard, Fox, Sonko, Dobson, Mattis, Demontagnac, Mooney and Deeney.

Roper’s mystery illness means that the eleven do pick themselves to a great extent, although Weston for Wrack might be the one change, if Donnie are a big side.

Docaster Manager Sean O’Driscoll has been under some pressure at the beginning of the season, but that has eased a little following wins against Crewe and Cheltenham last Saturday.

O’Driscoll certainly has some firepower at his disposal with impressive young striker Lewis Guy, former Bournmouth dangerman James Hayter and Paul Heffernan all capable of scoring goals, as is former Blackpool stalwart Richie Wellens. At the back, veteran ‘keeper Neil Sullivan can also be a formidable barrier.

Predictions?

I thought we’d certainly lose on Saturday, so my powers are definitely not working with this side. Doncaster are only three points ahead of us, so a win will put us in a very comfortable position. However, three away wins on the bounce would be a tremendous achievement – one not many sides match. I’d be happy with a point, on the whole.
