Walsall vs Aston Villa Live Streaming, TV Channels & Kick-off Time Info - Club Friendly

The reigning UEFA Europa League winners, Aston Villa, are making a trip to Walsall to face Walsall FC in a friendly as part of their preparations for the upcoming 2026/27 season. The game is being played at the Pallet-Track Bescot Stadium, which happens to be the home ground of Walsall FC and the Aston Villa women's football team as well.

While the result itself won't define either club's season, the match offers both managers a valuable opportunity to assess fitness, hand minutes to new signings, and give academy prospects a chance to impress before competitive football returns.

Aston Villa are riding on last season's success, when they finished fourth behind Manchester United in the league, securing Champions League football. The cherry on the cake was their Europa League triumph, where they defeated SC Freiburg 3-1 in the final to cap off a demanding season.

This new season, Unai Emery would like to continue the hard work that he has done and would expect more clinical output from his players. They are expected to take on FC Porto after this game, with three other friendlies against Real Sociedad, Indonesia XI, and BG Pathum United before playing their first official game of the season, the UEFA Super Cup against one of the best football clubs in the world currently, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

Meanwhile, Walsall FC endured a disappointing ending to their 2025/26 campaign where they finished 13th in the EFL League Two, the fourth division of English football.

After topping the table till Christmas, which seemed like they were in pole position for promotion, they suffered a drastic collapse in form, which saw them fade away from the race, ultimately leading to the sacking of Mat Sadler.

In the FA Cup, they were eliminated by Norwich City in the third round and didn't have much success in the Carabao Cup either, where they fell to Stoke City in the first round. Their first test of the pre-season against the Villans would be a good way to gauge where they are standing before the competitive fixtures begin.

They play Telford United next, followed by Notts County, before taking on Bristol City in the first round of the EFL Carabao Cup. The two teams have played 13 times against each other, with the head-to-head record being in favour of Aston Villa, who have won nine and drawn three times.

Walsall have managed to beat the Villans only once, which came last year in a friendly, thanks to a goal from Harrison Burke. Ahead of this pre-season fixture, join us as we explore the information regarding where to watch Walsall vs Aston Villa.
