Newport vs Southampton Prediction
Why we picked this for Newport vs Southampton
For this EFL Trophy fixture we go with Over 2.5 goals for Newport vs Southampton, at 52% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Newport's games produced 1.6 goals on average, 1 of them over 2.5. Southampton's games averaged 3.0, with 3 of 5 over the line. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went over 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Over 2.5.
The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. With 52% confidence the recent numbers only just favour this side, so this is one of our weaker picks. Final score: 0-8. The pick won.
