Newport CountyNo absentees
York CityNo absentees
Newport County host York City at Rodney Parade at 3pm on Saturday, with the unbeaten-at-home hosts meeting a York side yet to win on their travels.
Our Newport County vs York City predictions and betting tips look at a League Two contest between two mid-table sides pulling in different directions at home and away. Newport have been excellent in front of their own fans, while York’s fine early form has been built almost entirely at home, making this a fascinating clash of contrasting records.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson leans towards Newport, whose home form stands in stark contrast to York’s struggles on the road.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Second half to be the highest-scoring half | 11/10 (Ladbrokes) | Six of Newport’s ten League Two games have had more goals in the second half than the first, and Newport have gone in goalless at half-time in six of them too. York have followed the same pattern in five of their nine, so 11 of the 19 combined matches have been busier after the break. With fifth-placed York favourites and Newport hard to break down early, late goals look likely. Ladbrokes offer 11/10 on the second half being the highest-scoring half. |
| Newport County to win | 11/4 (Betfred) | There is a case for the hosts taking all three points outright. Newport are unbeaten in their last four and have looked assured at Rodney Parade, beating Colchester 1-0 last time out and keeping things tight throughout. York’s away record of two draws and two defeats from four, allied to just four goals on their travels, suggests they will struggle to break down a settled home side. With the Exiles strong at the back on their own patch, 11/4 about a Newport win looks a fair price given the venue. |

How Newport County go into the game
Newport sit 12th on 13 points but are unbeaten in their last four and formidable at home, where they have won three and drawn two of five. Their last outing was a 1-0 home win over Colchester.
At Rodney Parade the Exiles have scored nine and conceded just four, so they head into the weekend with every reason to fancy their chances against a side light on away form.
How York City go into the game
York arrive fifth on 15 points, but their standing is built almost entirely at home, where they have won four and drawn one of five. On the road it is a different story, with two draws and two defeats from four and only four goals scored.
Their last outing was a 1-1 home draw with Northampton, and it is on the road where their problems lie, with a Newport side unbeaten on home soil now awaiting them.
Newport County vs York City head-to-head
There is no recent history to call on here, with newly promoted York yet to face Newport in a competitive fixture, so current form is the only guide to a first meeting between the clubs.

Newport County vs York City score prediction
