Newport County
Swindon Town take on Newport County in an eagerly-awaited League Two clash, with the Robins eager to register their first win of the season. Despite showing moments of promise, Swindon have struggled to convert performances into victories so far. The absence of key forward Harry Smith, who is suspended, will be a blow to their attacking options, but head coach Michael Flynn has strength in depth.
Newport County, on the other hand, are coming off a heavy 4-1 defeat to Port Vale, where their difficulties at the back were on full display. With both Ciaran Brennan and Kyle Jameson suspended, the Exiles will be further weakened at the back, making their task even more difficult against a Swindon side determined to get back on course in the League Two. Given Newport’s defensive struggles and their missing players, Swindon have a great opportunity to capitalize and finally get their first win of the process. The Robins’ hunger for three points, combined with Newport’s defensive vulnerabilities, points to a home win at the County Ground.
