Cambridge United vs Walsall Prediction & Betting Tips - League Two

Prediction published on 30/12/2025, 10:00  by Thobelani Moyo in Football Predictions

Eighth-placed Cambridge United remain in the hunt for a promotion spot in EFL League Two. They will be hoping to secure another three valuable points when they welcome third-placed Walsall to the Abbey Stadium on matchday 24. Here's our match prediction.

Cambridge United recently made the trip to SMH Group Stadium to lock horns with promotion rivals Chesterfield. In a tense affair, the former managed to come out on top in a narrow1-0 victory. Before the interval, Shane McLoughlin had already put his team ahead with the only goal.

In light of that result, they've avoided defeat in nine league games. During this period, they recorded four wins and five draws. 

It's worth noting that the U's maintained five clean sheets, highlighting their solid defense, which is currently the second-best in the league this season.

Walsall come into this match with disappointment written on their faces. On Monday, they lost their grip on first place in League Two after suffering a 2-1 home last-gasp defeat at the hands of Oldham Athletic.

Before that setback, the Saddlers had been on an eight-match unbeaten run. Of those outings, six games ended in victory (D2).

On the road, Mat Sadler's men have been a force to be reckoned with. The last time they suffered defeat was in October. Since then, they've gone seven matches without defeat across all competitions.
