Prediction: 1-2
Newport County
Newport County will be looking to defend their two-goal lead in the tie against Forest Green when the two teams face each other at the New Lawn. The Exiles proved their worth in the first leg, with the team preventing the Green Army from creating a descent opportunity to score. Newport County are with one foot in the League Two playoffs final, but boss Michael Flynn must warn his men against complacency.
Forest Green, on the other hand, have no other choice but to adopt an attack-minded approach in the return leg. Considering that the Exiles will have a number of opportunities to score on break, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Michael Lynn’s troops. A man to watch in the away team will be midfielder Matthew Dolan, who is enjoying yet another successful season.
Highlighted Player (Dominic Bernard):
After spending his youth career at Tredworth Tigers and Birmingham City, Dom Bernard signed a professional deal with the Blues. However, he did not see any game action with Birmingham City at the senior level as he was instantly sent on loan at Aldershot Town.
After making 35 appearances for the Shots in the league, Dom Bernard joined Forest Green in the summer of 2019. He made his debut with the Green Army against Oldham Athletic on the opening day of the 2019/2020 season. Bernard, who quickly established himself as a first-team regular at Forest Green, has one cap with the Republic of Ireland U18 team while making two appearances with the U17 team.
He was born in Gloucester, England on March 29, 1997, and he wears the number 3 shirt at Forest Green. His main position is right back, but he is capable of producing fine performances as a centre-back as well.
