LEEDS United came unstuck in their bid for a fourth straight victory in Coca-Cola League One as they lost 1-0 at Walsall.
Troy Deeney headed the only goal of the game after seven minutes and the Whites were unable to counter.
Bradley Johnson had the ball in the net on the half hour, but his strike was ruled out for an offside.
In the second half, United boss Simon Grayson reshuffled his pack in a desperate search for a breakthrough, but they were unable to get past Walsall ’keeper Clayton Ince.
Tresor Kandol, who last week returned from a temporary spell at Millwall, has joined Charlton on loan until the end of the season.
