Competition: League Two

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 4/11 @ 888sport

Hoping to extend their buffer in the play-off places, Newport will make the trip to Bradford on Saturday afternoon when this weekend’s League Two fixtures get underway.

Starting with the hosts, slumping back to losing ways last weekend after an eye-catching resurge, Bradford will be hoping for an immediate response here. In their 38 League Two matchups this season, they have recorded 11 wins, 13 draws and 14 defeats, scoring 43 and conceding 47 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 46, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 15th in the standings and five points adrift of breaking into the top-half. However, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 defeat at home against Port Vale, Bradford have now lost six of their previous eight outings. Likewise, it should also be noted, along with each of their previous seven fixtures on the bounce, Bradford have also seen eight of their last nine home matchups finish with over 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, while Newport might have seen their impressive unbeaten run come to an end last time out, Newport are sat in pole position to book a play-off spot. In their 38 League Two matchups this season, they have recorded 17 wins, 11 draws and 10 defeats, scoring 62 and conceding 49 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 62 and holding a one-point buffer from dropping out of the play-off places, it should also be noted that Newport hold the second-best attacking tally in the division. As for theirr recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 3-2 defeat against Hartlepool on home soil, that was their first defeat from any of their eight outings. Likewise, it should be noted, with Saturday’s guests seeing seven of those eight fixtures finishing with over 1.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
