Salford City to Win

Reason for tip

Salford City look the stronger side on every meaningful metric and this is a good spot for them to extend their unbeaten run. They are six games without defeat in League Two and have won four of their last six, while Barrow have managed just one win in their last ten. Barrow are struggling badly in front of goal at home, averaging only 0.82 goals per game, and that lack of cutting edge makes it hard to see them taking advantage of Salford.

Salford City 1-0

Reason for tip

A narrow away win makes the most sense. Barrow have failed to keep a clean sheet in 11 straight league games and have lost their last three home matches, but their games are rarely high scoring. Salford are not a blow-you-away side either, with nine of their 12 league wins this season coming by a single-goal margin. With Barrow short of goals and Salford happy to manage games once ahead, a controlled 1-0 away victory looks the most likely outcome.

Salford Set to Grind Out Another Away Win

Salford possess a clear edge if the league table is any guide, and they are the best bet to get an away win at Barrow on Thursday.

They are fifth in the league, 14 places and 16 points above Barrow. The hosts sit 19th with six wins, six draws and 11 defeats from their 23 games this season, while Salford have won 12, drawn four and lost seven.

Salford are on a string of positive results – it’s six games since they last tasted defeat in League Two, and they have been winners in four of their last six games.

For their part, Barrow have only won one of their last ten League Two matches, and the recent form does not inspire much confidence.

They have been disappointing in front of goal at home this season, scoring just nine goals in 11 League Two games – an average of 0.82 goals per game.

The hosts have looked vulnerable at the back. Barrow have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 League Two games, and have gone without a shut-out in 16 of their last 20 matches.

A 1-0 away win for Salford looks a decent correct-score bet. Barrow have been beaten in their last three League Two home matches and nine of Salford’s 12 victories this season have been by one goal.
