Preview: Walsall (Papa John's Trophy)

November 9th 2021Noah Dougherty

Our final group game of the Papa John's Trophy sees Rob Edwards' men visit Walsall for a 7pm kick-off.

With two draws and a penalty shootout bonus point so far, a win in normal time or on penalties would see Rovers safely through to the next round.

Defeat on penalties could also mean progression, provided FGR score two or more goals in normal time.

Here is all you need to know ahead of the game.
