Stockport vs Barnsley Predictions

No League One team has played more games with four or more goals this season than Stockport, and Saturday’s clash with Barnsley at Edgeley Park is unlikely to be any different. Back over 3.5 goals.

Stockport are fifth in League One, 13 places and five points above Barnsley, having won four, drawn one and lost three of their eight games this season. The visitors have two wins, two draws and three defeats.

Stockport’s recent League One form has been inconsistent, with three wins, one draw and two defeats in their last six games. Two weeks ago they were 1-0 winners over Peterborough in their last home game, while Barnsley are without a win in three league games.

Ten of Barnsley’s 23 away matches in League One last season went over 3.5 goals.

Neither team has been solid at the back. Stockport have conceded in six of their last seven League One home games, while Barnsley have failed to keep a clean sheet in 17 of their last 20 league matches.

A 3-1 home win for Stockport is an appealing correct-score bet. Over 3.5 goals has been a winning bet in four of their eight League One games this season, and they were 3-1 winners against Barnsley last time they met in the league.
