Plymouth Argyle vs Newport County Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We think there could be plenty of goals when Plymouth host Newport in the second round of the FA Cup and are backing there to be over 2.5 goals which is priced at 19/20 with bet365. For our correct score tip we like the look of a 3-1 home win at 14/1 with the same site.

It’s been an extraordinary couple of weeks on the South coast as Plymouth have gone from a side that looked unbeatable to one that looks short on ideas. Argyle have now lost three games in a row and although they are still in the running, they lost out on top spot on goal difference at the weekend. They have averaged 1.53 goals per game this season while conceding an average of 1.11 goals per game.

Visiting Home Park is a Newport side that has found a new lease of life under manager Graham Westley and although they have lost the last two, they are a side which looks completely different to the one that looked sure to be relegated a month ago.

Plymouth are undoubtedly the stronger side and this showed when the sides met in League Two just a few weeks ago, Argyle came away with a 3-1 that day and they never looked in any sort of trouble. They will certainly have something to prove, considering the way recent results have gone and we are backing them to not leave it to chance.
