Mansfield Town’s final game of the 2025/26 League One season will be available to watch live as part of a Sky Sports broadcast agreement.

Stags will host Championship-bound Cardiff City at the One Call Stadium on Saturday to close another thrilling season in England’s third tier. Nigel Clough’s side have been able to freely enjoy this final run of fixtures after securing their survival for another season. In the process, Stags have surpassed last year’s final points total of 54, with 62 currently on the board ahead of their final clash against the Bluebirds.

With Mansfield safe and Cardiff guaranteed automatic promotion, there is no risk of danger for either side this weekend. Stags could even finish as high as ninth in the League One standings, depending on their result at the One Call and how Reading and Huddersfield above them fare in their final games.

If you won’t be attending the match this weekend, the good news is that Mansfield Town vs Cardiff City will be shown live, along with a full spread of the EFL’s final match-day schedule.
