The 2024/25 season is their 12th consecutive for Newport in League Two. Like in previous years, they have been a solid team for this level. Newport collected 26 points from 22 matches, which is enough for a safe eight points more than the drop zone. They have a solid distance and shouldn't get involved in the relegation battle, but Newport won only one of the last 11 matches in all competitions, and they certainly need to do better. In the previous round, Newport lost 2-0 on the road against Walsall. 

For most of the previous decade, AFC Wimbledon spent in League One. After two bad seasons in the fourth level of English football, Johnnie Jackson's team is now in the hunt for promotion. They are second on the table, and the fans certainly hope for a good season. AFC Wimbledon haven't impressed lately, with only two wins in the last five matches. In the previous game, they won 1-0 at home against Gillingham. The home side had an xG of 1.77, while the guests had 0.43, and AFC Wimbledon's victory was well-deserved. 

Newport vs AFC Wimbledon pick: Both teams to score - yes

Newport scored eight goals in the last three matches. On the other hand, AFC Wimbledon scored at least one goal in three of the previous four games. We should expect an interesting match between these two teams in which both sides should score at least one goal.
