Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Walsall
Match Time & Date:
18/02/2023
16:00
Prediction: 1-1
Newport County
After sharing the spoils with Northampton, Leyton, and Colchester in the previous three league fixtures, Walsall will look to get back on course when they take on Newport on Matchday 33. The Saddlers have been involved some low-scoring affairs of late, and they are likely to adopt yet another defence-minded approach against Newport. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team ahead of Saturday’s encounter.
The Welsh outfit, on the other hand, played out a 2-2 draw with Stevenage in their last league match. The Exiles will rely on Omar Bogle, who scored a brace against the Boro, but beating Walsall on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that both sides should be happy with one point from the match. In the first half of the season the Saddlers defeated the Exiles 1-0 thanks to Mickey Demetriou’s own-goal.
