Barnet vs Stockport Predictions

Barnet lost 2-0 at home to Fleetwood in the FA Cup last time out so their attention returns swiftly to the National League this weekend. Stockport County provide the opposition this Saturday and after winning 1-0 at home against Dagenham & Redbridge last weekend, the visitors will be hoping to build upon that positive result.

All the stats suggest this match is likely to see goals scored at both ends of the pitch and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1 this Saturday.

Both teams scored in five of the last six meetings between these two clubs and both teams scored in four of Barnet’s and three of Stockport’s last six matches, so you can see why we’re expecting goals at both ends of the pitch this weekend.

Barnet have only lost two games at home this season and Stockport have only won two games away from home this season. Stockport have only scored more than one goal in two of their 10 away games this season, while Barnet have only scored more than one goal in five of their 10 home games.

The performances of both teams in recent weeks and the season on a whole provide plenty of reasons to expect a score draw, as Barnet have only failed to score in two home games this season and Stockport have scored in six of their 10 away games. Both teams scored in five of Barnet’s 10 home games this season, as well as in five of Stockport’s 10 away games, another reason to expect both teams to score this weekend.

We’re confident both teams will score on Saturday, as both teams have played to a very similar standard so far this season and, while Barnet have the home advantage, it’s Stockport that head into the game as the form favourites. Both teams have been scoring and conceding goals on a regular basis of late and that’s why we’ve backed this game to finish 1-1.
