Newport actually have the third-cheapest teams in terms of value but that has not stopped them from being one of the best in the league. They scored some solid transfers recently with Jermaine Hylton coming from the Scottish Premiership and Joe Day coming from Cardiff in the Championship. Overall, they are a solid side that can score goals and they are strong at home.
