Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Walsall to win as the most likely result (44%). It gives Newport County 29% at home, a draw 27% and Walsall 44%, so its call is 2: Walsall to win. The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 37% / 28% / 35%, a call of 12 — a clear disagreement with the model. Expected goals are 1.1 for Newport County and 1.5 for Walsall; on goals, the model leans Under 2.5 at 52%.
Locked before kick-off (2026-11-04 08:49 UTC) and graded on that call. A double chance (1X, X2, 12) is called when the top two results are within 10 points. A goals call (O2.5 or U2.5) is made only when the model gives one side at least 65%.
