Walsall will have to override their recent form to improve their chances of reaching the second round of the FA Cup competition for the fifth year in a row as they travel to Eastleigh. This first-round match of the 2025-26 FA Cup will be played on Sunday in Eastleigh, and our prediction is that the hosting Spitfires will avoid defeat during regular time against the visiting Saddlers.
Eastleigh are playing in the competition proper after a one-year absence and have been knocked out of the first round in three of their last four appearances. Walsall have reached at least the second round in their last four appearances in a row.
The fifth-division Eastleigh haven't quite dominated their opponents in recent weeks but have been stable. They were beaten just once in their last eight competitive matches (W4, D3, L1).
That run included a 2-0 win over Hampton & Richmond Borough in the fourth-round qualifiers of this competition. With no defeats in their last four matches played at home (W2, D2), the Spitfires can be a tough club to play at this venue.
That may be bad news for Walsall, who haven't won any of their last five matches during regular time (D2, L3). The latest in that sequence was a 0-0 draw against Chelsea U21 in the EFL Trophy, before winning via penalties.

Our Eastleigh vs Walsall Prediction
This is an intriguing match-up because only one division separates Eastleigh and Walsall, while their recent form could offset that difference. Eastleigh have managed to be stubborn and stay undefeated in seven of their last eight competitive matches. Walsall, on the other hand, are without a win in their last five matches during regular time. That included a game against Chelsea U21s in the EFL Trophy, so the visitors clearly are struggling to close out games.
That could play to the home team's advantage, and our Eastleigh vs Walsall prediction is Eastleigh or draw.
