Walsall will be a tough game says Trewick

John Trewick, the Hereford United coach, is well aware that Walsall come to Edgar Street with a good record.

"Walsall are top of the league so it will be a very tough game for us," he told the Worcester News.

"Walsall have a very good record so far this season but we are unbeaten in four matches.

"We are showing a lot of qualities but know we have two great games in three days to look forward to - and I am really looking forward to it."

Meanwhile the last time the two teams met at Edgar Street was in August 1994 when the result was 0-0. But previously in October 1993 an Evan Wright brace helped give Walsall a 2-2 draw.

On Saturday his son Mark is expected to feature and he is hoping to score.

"I don't remember the game but fair play to my dad, it would be nice if I could go there and grab a goal but it would be even better if I could do that and we win this time!" Mark told the Official Walsall website.

"It's something of a derby and those type of games are always difficult. I'd imagine it'll be played at a high tempo and we won't get much time on the ball. We're going there expecting a battle and we've got to be up for the challenge.

"We're top of the League and there to be shot down but we have a strong dressing room and we're fully-focussed on the task at hand - three points on Saturday."
