Match Facts
Colchester United have won just one of their last 12 Football League games against Walsall (D7 L4) and have failed to score in each of their last two EFL matches against the Saddlers.
After winning the reverse fixture 1-0 in September, Walsall are looking to record a Football League double over Colchester United for the first time since the 2012/13 season.
Colchester United have won just one of their last eight home league matches (D4 L3), while only Sutton (3) have won fewer League Two games on home soil in 2023-24 than them (4).
Walsall have won just one of their last five away league games (D2 L2) and could suffer consecutive defeats on the road for the first time since November 2023.
