Prediction: 1-1
Morecambe
After suffering three consecutive defeats in League Two, Newport County will look to return to winning ways when they take on Morecambe on Matchday 25. The Exiles suffered a dip in form, with the team obviously struggling at the back, and, no doubt, they are low on confidence ahead of Sunday’s clash. Adding to their woes, both Kyle Hudlin and Shane McLoughlin limped off with injuries in a 2-1 loss to AFC Wimbledon.
The Shrimps, meanwhile, aim to build on a morale-boosting win over Tranmere, but given their poor away record in the 2024/2025 season, we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from the match. Bearing any fresh injury worries, Derek Adams is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Rovers in midweek. In the first half of the season Newport County defeated Morecambe 1-0 and yet another low-scoring affair is on the cards.
Highlighted Team (Newport County):
Nicknamed the Exiles, Newport County are a Welsh club that welcome their rivals at Rodney Parade. Despite being based in Wales, the club compete in the English League Two. Newport County’s home ground was built in 1904, and it has a capacity of 7,850 people. The club’s home colours are amber shirts and black shorts, with the team wearing black, gray and amber kit when playing on the travels.
Newport County did well to win Welsh Cup in 1980, with the team making it to the FA Trophy in 2012. In 2008 the Latics managed to win the FAW Premier Cup, with the team beating fellow Welsh club Llanelli 1-0 in the title game.
Newport County recorded their biggest league win against Merthyr Town (10-0) on April 10, 1930, with the team suffering their heaviest defeat to Newcastle United (0-13) on October 5, 1946. The club’s record league attendance is 24,268. The record was set on October 16, 1937, when Newport County hosted Cardiff City in a Football League Third Division South game.
