The Ammies take on Walsall at the Peninsula Stadium on Saturday, going into the match off the back of a 3-0 victory at Gillingham.
Ryan Watson was back in the side and he was on the scoresheet in the Ammies trip to Kent. A goal from Theo Vassell and a screamer from Callum Hendry ensured Salford took all three points and their first league win in five.
Salford moved up a place into eight, they face Walsall next who are in 10th place just a point behind Salford.
Vassell and Hendry both featured in the Sky Bet League Two Team of the Week, after their performances against the Gills.

The victory over the Gills will give Neil Wood’s side confidence going into their upcoming matches before the Christmas break. Wood said: “We’ve played against teams and we’re just waiting for it to connect and things to come right and we’d have a game like this where it’s three or four nil.
“We were hoping we could push, go for four or five and make a bit of a statement but I’m really pleased.”
Salford were victorious over Walsall at the Peninsula last season, so they will be hoping for a repeat of this on Saturday.
The Saddlers also come into the match after a win. They beat Doncaster Rovers 0-2 thanks to goals from Tom Knowles and Danny Johnson.
The Saddlers are unbeaten in their last five league matches, since their 2-1 loss at Mansfield Town on October 15th they have won four matches.
The match will take place at 3pm. Walsall had requested an earlier kick-off time due to England facing France in the quarter-finals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Saturday evening.
But Salford have decided to keep the kick-off time at 3pm.
