Newport will face Swindon in a huge fixture from the middle of the table in League Two. Here are our predictions.

Team Total Goals Prediction: Newport Over 1.5 Goals
While Newport aren't known as one of the league's high-scoring teams, their next opponent makes this a suitable bet. Swindon are one of the three worst defensive teams in the entire league, conceding almost an average of two goals per game. This is particularly key in their away games and Newport will have a great opportunity to have a more high-scoring game. Swindon have conceded at least two goals in nine of their last ten away games in all competitions. There is value in betting on the over 2.5 market, but we prefer this option instead.
Match Result Prediction: Newport to Win
Newport are a solid home side and have only lost twice in 14 home games in League Two. The main problem, however, has been the fact that they often fail to win and get unnecessary draws. They had six in those 14 fixtures to date. They are not a high-scoring team but this fixture is a great opportunity. The team recently scored twice past Man Utd in the FA Cup and overall, they have only two defeats in the last ten games. They should be able to score at least twice against a team like Swindon. The visitors lost seven of their last ten away games in all competitions.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Newport
Swindon may find a way to score in this game but we would rather not give them the benefit of the doubt. They are a high-scoring team but Newport are in great form right now and will be motivated for a good result after exiting the FA Cup mid-week. When we compare the Newport vs Swindon line ups, we see two teams that have completely different strengths. You can argue that Swindon are better in attack but Newport are far better defensively. The 2-0 scoreline feels like a good pick in this game.
