Newport County and Bristol Rovers have shaky starts to the season to improve on when they face off in League Two. Heading into this Saturday clash, hosts Newport are 20th in the standings and Bristol 16th. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
Newport have failed to build on their single win of the season and arrive here with five straight losses in all competitions. The Exiles are smarting from a 2-0 loss to Cambridge United, the third time in five matches that they failed to score.
In their eight games so far this season, the hosts haven't managed a clean sheet.
Bristol Rovers are eyeing a straight return to League One. They haven't had a stable run in the season so far, but they arrive for this game on a much better footing.
The Pirates are coming off a 1-0 win against Grimsby in the league. That was their fourth unbeaten match across all competitions. It was a welcome improvement after going on a four-match losing run to start the season.
The visitors will be banking on their newfound form to lift them here as these two meet for the first time in about two years. The last time they faced off, Bristol Rovers claimed a 1-0 win in the EFL Trophy.

Our Newport County vs Bristol Rovers Prediction
Bristol Rovers had a shaky start to the season following their relegation from League One. However, they are slowly gaining some stability and will arrive for this game in much better form after ending their four-game losing stretch.
The home team will be the more worried heading into this encounter. Newport County managed a win on matchday two, but things have worsened since. They will arrive for this encounter with five straight losses and having failed to score in three of them. Our prediction for Newport County v Bristol City is that Bristol City wins the match.
