Preview: Newport (A)

March 1st 2022Noah Dougherty

Rovers make the short trip across the River Severn to face Newport County tonight.

Here are the key matchday details:

What we said:

Carlisle-home-Jan-22-Edwards-2

"This is good opportunity to bounce back," said Rob Edwards.

"We could have a game where we’re more expected to win, but this is a great game because they’re a team in good form. They’re well-coached, they have good players and I think it’s just a really good game.

"We have a bit of recent history against each other as well, so we’re looking forward to it."

What they said:

Newport-James-Rowberry

“We are going to have to prepare really well because it is going to be a really tough, tactical game,” said James Rowberry. “We’ll look to do things that we felt we could have done better at their place. I don’t particularly like looking at their recent form, so we’ll prepare for it on face value.”

Team news:

Rob Edwards' men came through Saturday's defeat at Crawley unscathed, maintaining the squad's clean bill of health.
