Newport certainly did not want to be in this position when they came out to play their fixture against Forest Green two weeks ago. Now, with two losses in a row, the team has to win at all costs to retain its place in the promotion zone.

Newport vs Oldham: Top Free Betting Tips

Oldham are on their best run since the start of the season – three games without a loss. One more and they could well end up above the relegation zone for a change.

Total Goals – Under 2.5

Both teams had some over 2.5 games recently but we feel like the match between them will be quite the opposite. Both teams will be very motivated for this game. Newport need to get back on the winning track while Oldham finally have a chance to get out of the relegation zone this season. We think that both sides will play it safe and we shouldn't see as much action as we are used to seeing in Newport's games for instance. The previous match between them this season was quite similar – a 0:1 win for Newport.

At the same time, it should be mentioned that the two games last season had 5 and 6 goals each – 3:2 and 2:4 but back then, these were two completely different teams. We think that the both teams to score market (No) is also a viable option given that Oldham have had perhaps the lowest percentage of BTTS games in the league this season – just 43%.

Match Result – Newport

We really do not expect to see a third consecutive win for Oldham here. The team showed some spirit but their level is not the same as Newport's and unless the hosts play another terrible match in attack, we should see them score and win easily. The odds are surprisingly low for a game in League Two, so Newport truly are the massive favorite here. The team has been great at home lately and won 5 out of its last 7 home games.

Alternative Corners – Over 8

In most cases, we would bet on an under here but we think that there might be more corners in this match, especially if both teams rely on their defense as we expect. When you see their stats this season, we have all the reasons to believe that there will be at least 9 corners in this fixture. For instance, Newport have taken an average of 5.00 corners in their home matches this season. On the other side, Oldham have also taken a considerable number – 5.14 corners on average in their games on the road.
