Goal Statistics

Gillingham's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Newport County have conceded in each of their last 5 League Two outings. A PG of 1.7 for G. Ainsworth's side suggests that run should continue.

Gillingham's defensive record is to be admired, G. Ainsworth's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive League Two games. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Newport County makes sense in this context.
