Barrow vs Taunton Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Previews

Barrow may have felt a little bit disappointed with only managing to secure a replay against eight tier Taunton but, considering they played half the match with ten men, it probably wasn’t the worst result and the National League side are likely to fancy their chances back on home turf.

At odds of 11/10, ‘Barrow to Score Over 2.5 Goals’ looks the bet to be on here. The hosts have been in good scoring form in front of their own fans this season, particularly at their own level. Against opposition from a lower standing, the hosts really ought to be making light work of this and thus goals are fancied.

At home this season, Barrow have scored no fewer than 18 times in the National League (only two teams have scored more). In addition, they’ve scored three or more three occasions. While this might not seem an overly impressive stat, it must be put into perspective. They’ve done this against National League opposition, so repeating the feat against eighth tier opposition shouldn’t be the toughest task.

As for the visitors, well, Taunton may be in decent form in their own division, but such form is hardly comparable when they’re about to face a team three division above.

The away side conceded twice in the initial tie and it’s hard to see how they would’ve kept it at that if Barrow hadn’t had a player sent off just before half time.

It’s been a good run for Taunton  but, all things considered, they are fancied to be outclassed here and so their run will likely come to an end on Tuesday night.
