The 30-year-old went down in the 55th-minute and was unable to play any further part as the Saddlers extended their winless run to five games in League Two. 

Gordon has only recently returned from a long-term hamstring problem, which kept him out for over four months, but Sadler is hopeful it won't prove to be a serious issue. 

He said: "Josh has got a scan. Obviously he came off the other day (against Gillingham), we're hopeful that it's alright but we don't know.
