Following the conclusion of the 2024/25 Vanarama National League Play-Off Final, we now know which teams Walsall will be facing over the course of their 2025/26 League Two campaign.With league champions Doncaster Rovers joined by Port Vale, Bradford City, and Play-Off Final winners AFC Wimbledon in the third tier, Walsall will now come up against Crawley Town, Bristol Rovers, Cambridge United, and familiar foes Shrewsbury Town following their relegation.
After failing to achieve promotion and also avoiding relegation, the likes of Accrington Stanley, Barrow, Bromley, Cheltenham Town, Chesterfield, Colchester United, Crewe Alexandra, Fleetwood Town, Gillingham, Grimsby Town, Harrogate Town, Milton Keynes Dons, Newport County, Notts County, Salford City, Swindon Town, and Tranmere Rovers will once again be winging their way to WS1.
Meanwhile, Carlisle United and Morecambe will leave the league via the back door, whilst National League champions Barnet are joined by Play-Off winners Oldham Athletic, who defeated Southend United in Extra Time, in making the leap into the EFL.
It's certain to be another whirlwind campaign at the Bescot Stadium, roll on August!
