Newport County v Walsall prediction

Walsall crestWalsallDDWLW

What to expect

We expect about 1.2 goals from Newport County and 1.4 from Walsall, so Walsall come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.6 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Walsall or Draw. This covers Walsall or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 69 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.43, which works out at about 70 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
✓Newport County have won two of their last five.
✓Walsall have won two of their last five.
✓Three of the last five meetings had three goals or more.

Barnsley are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.5-1.1), and we make them about 71% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
