There will be fireworks when Newport County and Crawley Town face each other in the relegation six-pointer, with both sides under massive pressure to secure crucial survival points. As Newport have been in a much better form of late, we predict a 1-0 home win. The Exiles enter the clash boosted by a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury, and despite doubts over Jenkins and Spellman, they look confident. The Exiles have taken 1.30 points per game across their last 10 outings and score 1.10 goals on average, though their defensive numbers remain shaky with an xGA of 1.60 overall.
The Red Devils, meanwhile, continue to struggle in front of goal, especially away from home, where they have failed to score in 100% of their last five away matches. Danilo Orsi-Dadomo is doubtful, which is a huge concern given Crawley’s poor attacking output of just 0.60 goals per match overall. With only 0.40 PPG collected on the road and no away wins in their last five, confidence is low.
Historically, Crawley hold the upper hand with 9 wins from 20 H2H meetings, though current form suggests a different type of battle. Given Newport's better momentum and superior recent scoring form, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Newport to Score First and Under 2.5 goals as Crawley fail to score away; both teams average low scoring outputs.
This League 2 match will be played on Friday 3 April 2026 at 15:00.
