Port Vale secured a hard-fought point in a 0-0 draw away to Walsall on Saturday. The result extends their unbeaten run to two matches following last week's win over Exeter City.
Port Vale now sit 22nd in the League Two table with 5 points from their opening six fixtures. Their recent form reads WLLDD, with one win, two draws and two defeats in the last five outings. The clean sheet at the Bescot Stadium was a positive, building on the defensive resilience shown in the 1-0 victory against Exeter.
Manager Andy Crosby will be encouraged by the defensive solidity. The team has now kept two clean sheets in a row, a foundation they will look to build upon. The attacking statistics show room for improvement, with an average of 0.67 goals scored per game this season.
Looking ahead, Port Vale's next challenge is an away trip to face Rotherham United on January 9th. Rotherham currently occupy 16th place in the table. Fans can view the full upcoming schedule on the club's fixtures page and check the latest standings for the League Two picture.
