Salford City is set to face Notts County in the League Two promotion play-off final. The match will be a clash of two teams with different histories. Salford City finished fourth in the league, with 81 points from 46 games, and a recent form of LDWDW.

What's at Stake?

Salford City is looking to reach League One for the first time in their history. A win would mean they climb to the third tier and represent another milestone in the club's ownership. Gary Neville and Sir David Beckham have transformed the club's fortunes since their takeover in 2014.

The Road to Wembley

Salford City boss Karl Robinson has been building on the momentum generated since he took charge of the club in January 2024. The team has broken every single record this season, including most home wins and most points. Robinson said the owners have invested money, time, and emotion into the club, and this is not just a game for them.

The Opposition

Notts County is chasing their second Wembley success in four years, having beaten Chesterfield in the National League promotion final in 2023. The team is looking to return to the third tier for the first time in 11 years. Salford City will need to overcome their recent form, which has seen them lose their last two matches, including a 3-0 defeat to Notts County on May 25, 2026.
