Newport vs Cheltenham Town H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream
Preview
In League Two action, Newport meet Cheltenham Town on October 18. The match is set to start at 14:00 UTC.
A sense of anticipation builds as the upcoming encounter sees Newport and Cheltenham Town square off once more, 8 months after their previous League Two meeting which Cheltenham Town won 0-3. Newport are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to Swindon Town, Chesterfield, Arsenal and Gillingham, leaving them without a victory in their last eleven outings. Ahead of their clash with Cheltenham Town, they must first take on Accrington Stanley in League Two and Cardiff City in EFL Trophy, all of which will test their form and squad depth before facing Cheltenham Town. Tightening up at the back might be their best chance to shift momentum, especially given the fact their backline has lacked consistency, having conceded goals in each of their last sixteen matches.
Cheltenham Town's most recent outing, in contrast to their opponent's recent struggles, ended in a victory against Fleetwood Town, setting a positive tone ahead of this match. Nevertheless, their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have been conceding goals for ten consecutive away matches now. Cheltenham Town’s upcoming schedule leading up to Newport includes Gillingham in League Two and Bristol Rovers in EFL Trophy, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Newport.
Newport and Cheltenham Town meet in League Two with their goal-scorers and playmakers ready to take on pivotal roles. Newport’s attacking options, with David Hughes at the helm, have been bolstered by Kai Whitmore, the team’s top scorer, and Nathaniel Opoku, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. With two goals in League Two, Whitmore is Newport’s top scorer in the league, while also leading the team in assists, having set up one goal this campaign. Matthew Baker, Michael Spellman and Cameron Antwi have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.
Meanwhile, Isaac Hutchinson and Josh Martin have been pivotal for Cheltenham Town’s attack, shaped by Steve Cotterill’s vision, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Hutchinson has emerged as Cheltenham Town’s leading scorer in League Two this season, netting three goals, with Archer leading their creative tally in the league with two assists. Cheltenham Town’s offense has also been strengthened by George Miller, James Wilson and Ryan Broom, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.
