Following three consecutive defeats, Salford City will look to give fans some cheer when they take on Newport County in League Two round 4. The Ammies suffered a 1-0 defeat to Shrewsbury at the weekend, managing only 0.77 xG and one shot on target, highlighting their recent struggles in attack. Salford have nevertheless been considerably stronger at home, winning 40% of their last 10 matches at home and averaging 1.60 goals per game. They will be hoping to rediscover that attacking form here.
Newport County, meanwhile, have been involved in some high-scoring encounters and will be looking to bounce back from a 5-3 defeat to Bristol Rovers in their last away game. The Exiles have seen BTTS in 80% of their last 10 matches, while their away fixtures average 3.60 goals per game. Newport also concede 2.20 goals per away match during that spell, suggesting Salford should have opportunities. Christian Doidge is likely to miss out through injury, which is yet another reason why away win should not be considered.
Salford have the stronger home record, while Newport concede 2.20 goals per away game. Therefore, our main betting tip leans toward Home Win, alongside Salford Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (Newport's last 10 matches average 3.80 goals per game).
This League 2 match will be played on Tuesday 1 September 2026 at 19:45.
