Rochdale 0-1 Walsall Martin Butler's second-half goal earned Walsall victory at Rochdale. The visitors had the better chances, not least when Hector Sam intercepted a poor backpass only for goalkeeper Matt Gilks to recover.
Mark Wright and Butler both came close with volleys while Gilks made a fine save from Anthony Gerrard.
Just after the break Sam played in Butler who fired home to see off Rochdale, who only really threatened through two Rickie Lambert free-kicks.
