We said: Walsall 1-1 Doncaster Rovers

Both sides have been very poor in the second half of the season, and they have their early form to thank for the fact they have not been drawn into the relegation battle. With both sides devoid of any real quality, we expect them to play out a draw in the final game of the League Two season. Read more.
