Walsall 2026/27 League Two Preview

Walsall are fifth with 14 points from eight and are one of three sides yet to lose, drawing five of their eight. They won 3-0 at Gillingham, beat Accrington Stanley 3-2 and Port Vale 2-0, and drew with Grimsby Town, Crewe Alexandra, Exeter City, Rochdale and Tranmere Rovers.

Aaron Pressley has four goals, with Reece Smith and James Connolly on two each. Smith has created 18 chances and taken 13 corners, level with Lewis Simper. The headline number is Jed Ward’s: 31 saves, five goals conceded and five clean sheets in eight games.

Thirteenth and 65 points last season, with a goal difference of exactly zero, was the definition of mid-table. Lee Grant’s side have conceded five in eight this time, the meanest record in League Two, and the draws are what is keeping them off the top.
