As a team from the fourth strongest English league, Walsall had to start from the first round, not from the third, as teams from the EPL. In early November, Walsall beat Wickham (2:0), and in late November, they lost to Carlisle United (2:1). In the third round, Walsall pulled out a hard-fought 2:1 win over Stockport County. The winning goal was scored in the 95th minute on a penalty kick. They are sitting in 11th place in the middle of the League 2 standings, alternating wins and losses.
Leicester
Leicester is close to the relegation zone in the EPL. The Foxes gap is only one point, which they earned in the last round of the match against Brighton. The meeting ended in a 2:2 draw. They escaped defeat on 88 minutes. Thus, the series of four losses in a row was stopped. As for the FA Cup, the team got past League Two underdogs Gillingham in the third round with the score of 1:0. Kelechi Iheanacho scored the only goal. Now the Foxes will face a League 2 midfielder.
Expert Betting Tips
Walsall will be fighting to get to the next round. Therefore, this game will not be an easy stroll for Leicester. Consequently, we are confident in the high performance, as well as in the Foxes ability. A draw against Brighton should give Brendan Rodgers' side a bit of excitement and allow them to get a long-awaited win, which is not often the case in recent times.
