Rodney Parade will host what could be a season-defining clash on Easter Monday as hosts Newport County face off against Walsall in a match the visitors must win to keep alive their fragile automatic promotion hopes. Will The Exiles get back to winning ways or can the Saddlers remain in the race after stumbling badly the last couple of months? Check out our match prediction below!
Newport have not won in six games, drawing two, losing four and they sit 18th in the table with 48 points from 43 games. They need two points to be assured of avoiding relegation. Walsall’s miserable run of games without a win now stretches to eleven games. That form has seen them lose a 12-point lead at the top of the table to now lie fourth on 73 points from 43 games, a point outside the automatic promotion spots.
Heading into this game, Newport County were beaten 2-0 in their last home game by Colchester United, but on Good Friday managed to earn a point thanks to a 0-0 draw with MK Dons.
Walsall’s winless run now extends to eleven games after a 2-0 defeat at Barrow last week, followed by a 2-2 home draw against Harrogate Town on Good Friday.

Our Newport County vs Walsall Prediction
Our prediction for the Newport County vs. Walsall League Two match is: Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams to Score.
When the highest-scoring team in a division meets the team that has conceded the most goals, then the chances of goals being scored are high. Add to that the fact that Walsall have conceded in ten of their last eleven League One matches and desperately need a win to revive their flagging promotion hopes against a side without a win in six, then you have the recipe for a game with a great chance of goals at both ends.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
