Newport County vs Accrington Prediction and Betting Tips 27 January 2026

Newport County host Accrington in a League Two clash with both sides looking to move away from the lower half of the table. As Accrington are more of a team than Newport, we predict a 1-0 away win. The Exiles sit 23rd but come into the match off a 2-1 victory over Chesterfield, providing a morale boost despite inconsistent form, averaging 0.9 points per game, scoring 1.2 goals per match while conceding 1.9. At home, they are slightly better, scoring 1.2 goals and conceding 1.0, but their defensive record remains shaky.

Accrington are 16th and bring more stability, having drawn 0-0 with Walsall at the weekend. The Accy Stanley average 1.7 points per game, score 0.9 goals, and concede just 0.8, with 50% clean sheets overall. Away form is solid, with 1.75 points per game and only 0.5 goals conceded. H2H is balanced, with Newport winning 5 of the last 11 encounters and BTTS in 55% of the meetings.

Accrington are more consistent than Newport County and given their solid defence, our prediction points toward Away Win, with additional value on Under 2.5 goals and Accrington to Win to Nil.

This League 2 match will be played on Tuesday 27 January 2026 at 19:30.
