Newport County have been boosted by the return of Kyle Cameron and Hull City loanee Matty Jacob ahead of their trip to Crewe Alexandra.

Hayden Mullins' side are 14th in the table and head to the Mornflake Stadium on Saturday, 14 November (15:00 GMT), as they hunt for their first away win of the season in League Two.

Captain Cameron has played every league minute for County so far, but missed Saturday's 3-1 win over Walsall in the first round of the FA Cup through illness.

Left-back Jacob has been equally impressed during the opening stages of the campaign, but the 25-year-old has been sidelined with a hamstring injury suffered against York City on 17 October.

"They've both been in all week and trained and are a part of the group again which is good. It's great to have Matty back, he was a very important part of the team before we lost him to injury," Mullins said.

"We're nearly back to full strength. We're still missing a few, (Matt) Dibley-Dias and Tan (Nyakuhwa) both have long-term injuries so they're not with us.

"The group have dealt with it really well to be honest, the lads are well prepared and the ones who have stepped in when needed have really helped with performances."

The Exiles are yet to taste defeat at Rodney Parade in the league this season, but have struggled on their travels thus far - drawing three and losing four of their seven games on the road - something Mullins wants to put right on Saturday against a side fourth in the division.

"You always want to try and win games of football. I think that's the one thing we set up to do as a club and as a team. We set up to try and win games and Saturday will be no different," he added.

"For us the confidence in terms of what we've been doing is very good. In the FA Cup and in the league we've scored seven goals in those two games. We're in a good place.

"It's away from home, it's always a difficult task. Crewe will be no different. They're a well-organised team, very good going forward and they play a good system.

"It'll be a tough, tough game and we hope that Saturday can go our way and we can get that first away league win out of the way."
