Newport County

LDLLLL 📉

After suffering a loss in their previous game against Swindon Town in League Two action, Newport County and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

Ollie Palmer (10') was the scorer for Swindon Town.

Newport County have been effective going forward in the lead-up to this encounter, scoring 6 times in their previous 6 matches. While their manager David Hughes will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Newport County have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same games. That sort of trend won’t necessarily follow through into this game, though.

🧠 Prediction

In our view, Newport County will manage to score against this Cardiff City side, although that realistically won’t be as many as they’ll concede.

We’re going for a narrow 2-1 win for Cardiff City at the end of the 90 minutes. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
