NOTTS COUNTY, England (Interstat) — Notts County and Newport County meet Monday in a League Two fixture with both sides looking to rebound from disappointing results last time out.

The match at Meadow Lane kicks off at 3 p.m. local time (1400 GMT) on April 6.

Notts County (15-9-12) enters the contest after a 2-1 road loss to Salford City on Friday. That defeat snapped a two-game winning streak in league play that included a 5-2 rout of Cheltenham Town and a 2-0 victory at Harrogate Town. The Magpies’ form at home has been inconsistent, mixing dominant wins like a 5-0 result against Tranmere Rovers with surprising shutout losses.

Newport County (13-8-15) arrives following a 2-0 home defeat to Crawley Town on Friday. That loss halted momentum from a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury Town on March 28. The Exiles have struggled for consistency, having lost four of their last six league matches. Their away record in this period includes a win at Barnet but also losses to Walsall and Milton Keynes Dons.

The head-to-head history suggests a tight affair. The last meeting between these clubs ended in a 1-1 draw at Rodney Stadium on Aug. 2, 2025.

A statistical projection from Interstat forecasts another 1-1 draw for this matchup.

Notts County currently sits eighth in the League Two table with 54 points. Newport County is 16th with 47 points. With the season entering its final weeks, points are critical for Notts County’s push for a playoff position and for Newport County to secure its status in the division.

Injury reports for both clubs were not immediately available.

Following this match, Notts County travels to face Cambridge United on April 11. Newport County will host Harrogate Town on the same date.
