Northampton vs Newport is a League Two clash at Sixfields on Saturday, with the hosts fancied.
Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record for this League Two clash below.
Premium Tips
Andy is with Northampton, with a low-scoring home win on the cards.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Northampton to win and under 2.5 goals | 11/4 | Northampton have been rock solid and involved in cagey, low-scoring affairs, with every one of their four League Two games this season finishing under 2.5 goals, including a 0-0 with Swindon and 1-1 draws with Crawley and Gillingham. They also carry a strong record in this fixture, beating Newport in three of the last six meetings including 2-0 and 1-0 home wins. With the Cobblers tight and tough to break down on their own patch, and Newport yet to win on the road this term, a controlled, low-scoring home victory shapes up as a sensible combination at Sixfields. |
| Matty Warhurst to score anytime and Shaq Gwengwe over 0.5 shots on target | 4/1 | Shaquille Gwengwe has been Newport’s standout performer, scoring four times in four League Two games and landing five shots on target as an ever-present starter, so over 0.5 shots on target for him is a strong, dependable pick. Matty Warhurst leads the Northampton line at home and will be eager to open his account in front of his own supporters, providing the second string to the double. With Gwengwe in red-hot form and firing efforts away every week, and Warhurst spearheading the home attack against a Newport defence that has conceded freely on its travels, the pairing blends a banker with a bit of value. |
