In the last seven games, five defeats were accepted, clearly reflecting the current form. The average goal occurrence in their matches is about 2.8, which basically signals a relatively high scoring frequency.

Walsall
Walsall appears significantly more stable in comparison and has managed to celebrate three wins in the last four matches. The team is defensively very solid and concedes few goals, which is reflected in an average goal involvement of only 1.4 goals per match.

Injuries
No detailed information is available regarding current injuries.

Head-to-Head Matches
Previous encounters between Shrewsbury Town and Walsall have often been hard-fought, with Walsall recently showing a performance advantage. Both teams met in several matches, indicating a certain vulnerability to conceding goals on both sides.

Match Forecast
Although Shrewsbury Town struggles with a vulnerable defense and weak offense, Walsall faces an opponent that, despite its weaknesses, also regularly scores. Walsall’s defensive stability restricts the number of goals, yet it is very likely that both teams will continue their goal-scoring trend and find the net due to previous tendencies. For this reason, the bet Both Teams to Score: Yes with odds of 1.65 is considered recommendable.

My Tip: Both Teams to Score: Yes (1.65)
