Premium Tips

Andy is with Barnsley, with a tight home win on the cards.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Barnsley to win and under 2.5 goals4/1Barnsley are at home at Oakwell, where they have beaten Stevenage in each of the last two meetings, and they have started the season tidily with five goals scored and just three conceded in four games. Stevenage have been middling and a touch leaky. That backs a home win, and Barnsley’s solid defence, allied to a fixture that has often been low-scoring with several 1-0s, supports the under.
Both teams to score – No and Ben Toure to score anytime19/2This one resolves as Barnsley scoring while keeping Stevenage out, with Toure on the scoresheet, effectively a Barnsley clean-sheet win with him netting. Barnsley have been mean at the back, conceding only three in four, so shutting out a modest Stevenage attack is a realistic outcome that backs the no side of both teams to score.

How Barnsley go into the game

Barnsley beat Blackpool 2-1 last time out, a welcome home win. Oakwell is where their promotion push must be built.

Well-organised and dangerous, Barnsley will fancy their chances at home. Backing up that win is the aim.

How Stevenage go into the game

Stevenage drew 0-0 at Peterborough last time out, a battling away point. They travel to Oakwell hard to beat.

Physical and well-drilled, Stevenage will look to frustrate Barnsley. A point on the road would be welcome.
