Newport County, Recent FormNewport County will not be too troubled by their 2-0 away defeat against Wrexham, given the latter currently sit 14 places further up the league table than they do.
Manager Graham Coughlan will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 10 of their 11 played at Rodney Parade this season.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories. Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 11 home league games.
On an individual basis, Will Evans will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 12 goals in Newport County's 23 league games this season.
Forest Green Rovers, Recent FormAn important point secured against Gillingham will have left Forest Green Rovers quite happy with their 0-0 draw.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Troy Deeney where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 10 in the same period. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games away from home.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
Away from home in the league, Troy Deeney has given the Forest Green Rovers travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
Forest Green Rovers will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Newport County, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 0-3 defeat.
From their past 5 away matches in the league against Newport, The Green Devils have managed to find the net with at least 1 goal and will be aiming to keep that streak going. Forest Green have a good attacking record away to The Exiles in the league, having scored a total of 7 goals in their last 3 visits, which gives an average of 2.33 goals per game.
In the league, Forest Green has had a solid run on the road against Newport, being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings at Rodney Parade.
