Match Preview & Team News
Hosts are having very hard task though. The Swans are playing best football in the last couple of seasons, managing to collect 43 points from 23 games and occupy the second place. Both sides have warmed up for this important clash with smooth victories in FA Cup last weekend. Who are you backing this Saturday? Read on our Championship betting tips and predictions below.
Current Form And Home & Away Performances
Hopes and appetites of Barnsley’s fans have grown drastically in the last two months. Squad has earned five victories in the last seven Championship fixtures. This boosted them up to 9th place, having 34 points. 6th placed Watford for example are only three points away. Battling against Swansea is going to be very rough though. These two teams have already met once this season where Barnsley got defeated 2-0 quite easily. Overall they struggle against top tier teams. The last Championship fixture saw them lose to Norwich City too. Defending can be improved by a lot. Barnsley have kept only one clean sheet in the last 12 appearances across competitions.
Swansea’s head manager Steve Cooper is surely satisfied with things achieved in 2020 and early 2021. Team has the best defensive stats in the league, while losing only four out of 23 games. Attacking duo Lowe and Ayew has scored total of 16 goals so far, and will be the biggest threat for Barnsley’s defense.
Goals Markets Betting Preview
19 out of 23 games ended Under 2.5 goals for Swansea City. We are not expecting a lot of action at Oakwell too, so this option does seem like the most appropriate one.
Betting Preview
As mentioned above, Barnsley usually struggle against league’s top guns. They were defeated by Swans in the recent meeting relatively easily, so we see massive value in backing away win here at 8/5 odds.
