Barnsley vs Bolton Prediction & Betting Tips (3 May)

Bolton have really rediscovered their mojo in recent times, winning ten of their previous 13 games at the top table of the League One and only dropping points against some games during this spell. Barnsley, by way of contrast, have triumphed just once in 12 matches of late, and they were beaten 4-1 in this fixture last term.

The deadlock has been broken at some point in 17 consecutive Barnsley home matches in the league, so achieving consistency has not proven too difficult on this particular front. Given that just one of the previous 20 Bolton away games at this level has finished scoreless, it would come as a shock were these teams not to conjure up at least two goal.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from five of the previous six Barnsley home games in the League One, so thrillers have been few and far between at the home Stadium. As for Bolton, just four of their most recent 17 away matches at this level have produced goals at both ends, which doesn’t offer much hope.
