Match Preview
Chambers worry for Saddlers Adam Chambers is Walsall's only injury concern ahead of their home clash against MK Dons. The midfielder is rated as 50/50 as he looks to overcome the thigh problem which ruled him out of Tuesday`s disappointing 2-1 home reverse to Exeter. Otherwise, manager Dean Smith has a full strength squad to select from as he looks to turn the club`s fortunes around following back-to-back defeats and secure what would be only a second league win in 11 attempts. It will not be easy against a Dons side currently seventh in League One and chasing promotion, but the Saddlers can take hope from the fact they too are going through a dip in form having won just one of their previous nine. MK Dons will be without Adam Smith. Full-back Smith, on loan from Tottenham, will serve a one-match suspension at the Banks's Stadium following his red card for two bookable offences during the Dons' 2-1 defeat at Sheffield United on Tuesday night. Fellow defenders Gary MacKenzie and Mathais Kouo-Doumbe are doubts with knocks. Kouo-Doumbe would be the natural cover for Smith, which could mean Adam Chicksen fills in at right-back if the Frenchman is not fit. Meanwhile, a sickness bug has hit the Dons camp this week. A handful of unnamed players are affected but boss Karl Robinson is hopeful that it will not impact too much on his selection options on Saturday.

Match Report
Dons down 10-man Saddlers Ten-man Walsall slipped deeper into relegation trouble after losing 2-0 at home to MK Dons. Their cause was not helped by having veteran goalkeeper James Walker sent off in the 33rd minute for handling the ball just outside the area. The Saddlers did not have another keeper on the bench so full-back Lee Beevers had to go in goal and the first thing he was required to do was pick the ball out of the net when Dons skipper Dean Lewington swept a perfect free-kick into the top corner after 35 minutes. Dons, who had won only one of their previous nine games, added a second goal just before half time. Former Walsall striker Jabo Ibehre stabbed the ball home after Beevers had blocked a shot from Daniel Powell. At half-time Walsall manager Dean Smith, who had been upset earlier in the game when he felt the referee missed an elbow on striker Jon Macken, was sent to the stands. In the second half Walsall's 10 men battled bravely and substitute Claude Gnakpa was unlucky in the 62nd minute when his shot hit both posts before rebounding to safety.
