Newport Set to Face Rochdale in FA Cup Match

Newport County Set to Face Rochdale in FA Cup Second Round Clash

Newport County will travel to Rochdale, another club in League Two, for their upcoming match in the second round of the FA Cup.

County secured their place in this stage by defeating Walsall, another team from League Two, with a 3-1 victory at Rodney Parade last Saturday.

Rochdale, who made a return to the EFL at the beginning of this season, progressed with a 2-1 win against Fleetwood Town, known for their giant-killing runs in the EFL Cup.

Earlier in the season, Newport had an impressive start, beating Rochdale 3-0 at Rodney Parade on the opening day in August.

The matches for the second round will take place during the weekend starting Friday, 4 December.
