Sutton United vs Newport County Predictions

Possibly one of the hardest games to call across the opening round of League Two fixtures sees Sutton United welcome Newport County. The hosts missed out on a play-off place by just one place last term while the visitors also recorded a top-half finish.

With just one defeat across their last 20 home games, Sutton have a great case for success in this encounter. However, standing in their way is a strong-travelling Newport side who’ve lost just three of their last 13 away games!

Newport’s new boy Omar Bogle will be testing out the capabilities of Sutton’s new shot stopper Jack Rose in this encounter, but we can see this one ending with the spoils shared given the similar ambitions and solid respective form of these sides.

As for the correct score, a tentative bet on the 1-1 draw could be a smart play.
