Second Team News
Against Southampton, Newport County squad Michael Flynn would love not to have any health issues approaching this game as a completely injury-free team is there to decide. Newport County, following results from the start, will be expecting more of the same after a 0-1 League Two win over Tranmere Rovers.
Newport have made a solid start to the local campaign, winning three of their first 4 games, although County could escape Southampton’s quality in the Premier League on Wednesday. The Saints will garner a lot of confidence as a result of their 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday and we recommend that they take advantage of their renewed confidence in the Carabao Cup in Newport.

Meanwhile Southampton showed buckets of grit and willpower in their 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Sunday and manager Ralph Hasenhuttl looked pleased with his side’s display at full time at St Mary’s Stadium. That point will get the Saints up and running for the season and with their confidence boosted they should be able to play more arrogantly in Wales this week.

Southampton have been quick starters this season and the Saints have gone ahead at the interval in each of their first 2 competing jobs of the new season.
