On Tuesday the 24th April, Newport County AFC will host Harrogate Town at Rodney Parade in SkyBet League Two at 19:45pm.
Newport County AFC will be looking to carry on the momentum from their 3-1 Win over Doncaster on Saturday by picking up another three points against Harrogate on Tuesday night. Harrogate will be looking to halt that momentum though by ensuring they take the points home, aiming to bounce back after their recent 3-1 defeat to Northampton town on Saturday.
Newport County picked up a solid result on the road on Saturday at the Eco-Power Stadium against Doncaster Rovers with goals from Farquharson, Wildig and Norman. Harrogate had their 6-game unbeaten run halted by Northampton Town on Saturday after a 3-1 defeat at Sixfields.
County currently sit 14th in SkyBet League Two and Harrogate currently are 21st in the league, however, wins for either club could see County or Town climb by a place, results dependant.
Graham Coughlan spoke highly of the travelling fans on Saturday, praising the Amber Army for their relentless support, the atmosphere they produce home and away and emphasised the bond and connection between the fans and the players.
