Best Tip: Both teams to score

Studying the KickOff match predictions, bookmakers' odds and relevant stats, there's one market that seems hard to ignore for this fixture: both teams to score. In Newport and Salford we have two sides going head-to-head that can both score and concede, and we expect them to show themselves again on Saturday afternoon. BTTS – yes best odds: 1.53.
