Match prediction

  • Newport City's away form is decisive: two wins and a draw on the road, including a 4-0 victory, while Cardiff Draconians have lost three of six overall.
  • Cardiff Draconians concede 2.5 goals per home game and kept no home clean sheets, undermining their already slim 10% win probability.
  • Newport City's defence allows just 0.3 goals per away match with two away clean sheets, directly supporting the 45% away win probability.
  • The head-to-head record favours Newport City, though the split results and Cardiff's home advantage qualify the 100% h2h figure as a small-sample trend.
  • Cardiff Draconians score 2.0 goals per home game but failed to score in two away matches, suggesting their threat is venue-dependent.
  • The model's 45% draw probability nearly matches the away win, reflecting Newport's low-scoring away profile and Cardiff's home volatility.
