Walsall’s League Two campaign has been nothing short of stellar this season.<\/p>\n
Six league wins in a row, 13 unbeaten, and a dozen points clear at the top. <\/p>\n
It feels like the West Midlands side would need to take an almighty tumble in order to blow their chance of promotion in the new year.<\/p>\n
The table below them is nothing short of extraordinary with just one point separating second-placed AFC Wimbledon and Crewe in eighth.<\/p>\n
Third-placed Notts County, who host Walsall on Wednesday, are one of five teams on 37 points.<\/p>\n
The Magpies are on a hot streak themselves, winning their past three matches and ending the year with a 5-3 win over Cheltenham.<\/p>\n
At the other end, none of the bottom six start 2025 feeling safe.<\/p>\n
Tranmere, in 19th and four points clear of the relegation zone, take on bottom club Morecambe, who could climb out of the relegation zone with a win.<\/p>\n
Carlisle’s huge result against fellow strugglers Accrington on Sunday will give them hope at Crewe, while Stanley face promotion-chasers Grimsby.<\/p>\n
Swindon and Harrogate will want to make the most of home advantage in their bid to move clear of trouble as they take on Colchester and Salford respectively. <\/p>\n
