Newport County AFC host Southampton in the English EFL Cup 1/32 finals. The match will be played on Wednesday, August 25th at Rodney Parade (Newport)
Newport County AFC won the Welsh Cup and the First League of that country, but it did not achieve anything at the level of England. The Exiles play in the Second League of England, which corresponds to the fourth division. In the current season, the club has played three matches in its championship, gaining six points in them (two victories and one defeat). The last match ended with an away victory over Tranmere Rovers (0-1). Newport beat Ipswich Town away (0-1) in the last round of the League Cup. The Exiles have three personnel losses before the upcoming confrontation.

Southampton is considered to be a tough middle peasant in the Premier League, which is confirmed by the results in the championship. The club began with a defeat away to Everton. The Saints were winning 0-1 after the first half but lost 3-1. In the second round, Southampton managed to keep a home draw against the formidable Manchester United (1-1). The Red Devils had a significant advantage, but the Saints withstood the pressure and earned their first point in the current season. Two players will miss the upcoming match due to injuries.
Previously, Newport and Southampton have never played against each other, but this is easily explained by the fact that the clubs are divided by several divisions. The Welsh will be extremely motivated and will try to put up a worthy resistance to the representative of the Premier League. We expect a stubborn struggle and suggest placing a bet on Over 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
