Newport County and Chesterfield meet in League One, with the hosts having just lost 0-1 at home in their latest match, while the visitors just thrashed their opponents 5-1 at their own ground. The two teams therefore come into this in clearly different moods. Newport County are without a win in 3 straight matches, but they have drawn a lot and their defence has not collapsed; they score some and concede some in roughly equal measure. Chesterfield, on the other hand, are a team that clearly dominates possession and gets more shots on target over the last 10 matches, though their defence still shows occasional lapses. This game is likely to see Chesterfield with more of the ball and pushing forward, while Newport County sit back and wait to counter. If the hosts can hold firm and not concede early, the game will become more and more of a grind, with a good chance it ends close or the hosts nick it.
