Newport County vs. Oldham Athletic

Newport County is ranked seventh in the English Football League Two standings and is capable of playing any style, outscoring league foes 46-38 in 30 matches. The offense is in a slump, failing to score in the last two games while losing to Northampton Town (1-0) and the Forest Green Rovers (2-0). Five of their last seven matches have gone UNDER 2.5 goals. The defense will do well against 23rd-ranked Oldham Athletic, which has an offense that's netted 25 goals in 28 games, the third-fewest in the 24-team league. Four of their last seven have gone UNDER 2.5 goals, including three scoreless DRAWs versus Barrow, Hartlepool United, and Rochdale. Also, five of their last six road games have sailed UNDER 2.5. Newport County shut out Oldham Athletic, 1-0, when they last met in August, and this looks like another game with more defense than offense. Take the UNDER.
