It's no vacation for neither Newport nor Bradford City as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Newport County form and stats
8-4-3 (win-draw-lost) are the League Two numbers at home for Newport County so far this season.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Tranmere Rovers (0-1).
This is expected to be a close game, with Newport County perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Newport County as a small favourite), we find 15 games. Newport has won eight of these, drawn five and lost two.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Newport as they are travelling to their away game against Morecambe in the League Two. That match is four days after this one.
The Newport County fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 15 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Newport have only conceded 14 from their league home games.

Bradford City form and stats
6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses. That’s the product of Bradford City playing as the away team in the League Two this season. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Bradford, as they have won on their previous two travels.
A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Mansfield Town.
The draw against Bolton Wanderers came from a losing position. The Bradford City manager M. Trueman brought on Danny Rowe as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Bradford City in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Bradford City, two draws and seven defeats.
Bradford has another fixture away, a League Two game, against Carlisle United in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
Bradford City are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 19 away goals from 15 games (in the league). As opposed to that, Bradford City have seen the ball go into their own net 19 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Bradford City - Newport 0-3. Head-2-head stats last three meetings: two - zero - one (Newport wins - draws - Bradford City wins). As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.Top Goalscorers
