Match Facts
Since a run of three consecutive draws between 1965-66 and 1966-67, none of the last 11 meetings in the top four tiers between Newport County (W4) and Wrexham (W7) have ended in stalemate.
Wrexham are aiming to complete a league double over Newport County in the top four tiers of English football for the first time since doing so in the fourth tier in 1969-70, a season in which Wrexham were promoted.
Newport County are unbeaten in their last four League Two matches (W2 D2), their longest unbeaten run in the division since April 2023 (a run of six).
Wrexham have lost just one of their last seven away matches to fellow Welsh clubs in the top four tiers (W2 D4), with this match against Newport their first league away day in Wales since a 0-0 draw with Swansea in 2003.
