Lowe scored his first two goals in a 3–2 win in the EFL Cup against Huddersfield Town; he had missed a penalty earlier in the match. Lowe scored his first league goal in a 2–1 win over Cheltenham Town. After scoring ten goals in 18 matches for the Saddlers, Lowe was named as EFL Young Player of the Month for October 2024.
