Preview

Tanatswa Nyakuhwa scored the winner from the bench last weekend as Newport County edged past a struggling Colchester side in Wales. Hayden Mullins' men are unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions heading into gameweek 11.

York City returned to action with a point at home against Northampton last time out after Ollie Pearce popped up with a late equaliser. The Minstermen sit fifth in the standings ahead of their trip to Rodney Parade with just two defeats in nine games.
