Match Facts
Barrow have won just one of their last four Football League games against Newport County (D1 L2), whilst they’ve only ever scored more than two goals in two of their 21 EFL matches against the Welsh side.
After winning 1-0 on their last visit to Holker Street in February 2023, Newport County will be looking to win successive away Football League games against Barrow for the first time.
Barrow are unbeaten in their last three home league games (W2 D1), keeping a clean sheet in each game; the Bluebirds have recorded 10 clean sheets across their last 14 matches at Holker Street.
Newport County have won four of their last six away league games (L2), keeping clean sheets in three of those victories, including one during their 2-0 win over AFC Wimbledon last time out.
