Matthew Taylor's Saddlers arrived at the match in search of their second win in as many games, as they looked to build upon a midweek win over Port Vale and edge closer to the Play-Off places.
It was another afternoon to forget for the Saddlers as, despite entering the game on the back of a welcome win over the Valiants, and taking on opposition in the midst of a dire run of form, it was Walsall who would go home without a point as Tristan Abrahams bagged the only goal of the match to help Carlisle break their winless run..
