Andy Booth grabbed his ninth goal of the season to seal Huddersfield's third win in a row as they comfortably saw off Walsall in a mid-table encounter.

Huddersfield went ahead on 40 minutes through Danny Schofield's fine finish after Andy Holdsworth sent him clear.

Walsall went close through Kevin Betsy's curling effort after the break but the home side were the more dangerous attacking force throughout.

Booth settled the game when he planted a firm header past keeper Clayton Ince.
