Stockport 1-0

Hosts to bounce back

Stockport can bounce back from a 3-0 defeat to Peterborough when they host Barnsley on Saturday.

Both teams have won more games than they’ve lost this season, but Stockport are five places above Barnsley in the table. The hosts are fourth with eight wins from their 16 games, while Barnsley are ninth having won seven.

Barnsley come into this game in better form, having won their last two League One matches, while Stockport have suffered two successive defeats.

Barnsley have been struggling defensively of late, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last five League One away games. In fact, they have kept just two clean sheets in their last 20 league games.

A narrow 1-0 victory for Stockport looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score market. Six of their eight League One wins this season have been by a single goal, and they have won two of their last three home games 1-0.
