Fleetwood Town – Newport County

Fleetwood Town host Newport County in what promises to be a pivotal clash at Highbury Stadium. Sitting seventh with ten points from two wins and four draws, the home side have enjoyed a solid defensive record, conceding just four goals while scoring seven. Newport, languishing at the foot of the table in 20th place, have only five points after one victory and two stalemates, and their goal difference of minus one reflects a leaky defence that has let in 11. With Fleetwood looking to consolidate a top‑half push and Newport desperate for the points needed to climb out of the relegation zone, the encounter could prove decisive for both campaigns.
