Barnsley vs Sheffield Betting Analysis

Top four clash over in English League One on Tuesday as top-of-the-table Sheffield Wednesday takes on 4th placed Barnsley with both teams looking to solidify themselves in the promotion stakes with just over ten games remaining on the season.

Sheffield Wednesday have been nigh on perfect this season, not having lost a game in the league since October, while Barnsley have arguably been the most in-form team across recent months, generating an average of 2.67 PPG against top-rated sides such as Portsmouth, Wycombe, and Plymouth.

Outside of club friendlies, the two teams have been fairly hard to separate across recent seasons, owning a W2, D2, L2 record respectively across their last six meetings.

It’s been even tighter in Barnsley’s home stadium of Oakwell as well, with both teams owning a W1, D5, L1 record across all of their last seven meetings in this venue.

The Owls Hoping To Overcome Last Season’s Disappointment

Sheffield Wednesday know all too well about being in the thick of the playoff hunt, finishing 4th in the league last season but eventually bowing out in the playoffs to now Championship side Sunderland, so no doubt the Owls will be hoping for more success this time around.

That’s something that appears to be well on course as well as they currently sit one point clear of Plymouth in second, and enjoy two games in hand over the Pilgrims as well.

Barnsley Hitting Gear At Just The Right Time

Winning nine of their last eleven league games overall and failing to lose a single game in over two months, Michael Duff’s side appear to be hitting top gear at just the right time in order to make it back into the Championship at the very first time of asking.

While Barnsley currently sits eight points off 2nd placed Plymouth in the race for automatic promotion, they do hold two games in hand over both of the teams above them (Ipswich & Plymouth), and will no doubt feel confident of closing that gap given the form they’re currently in.

Barnsley vs Sheffield Expert Prediction

We’re expecting an incredibly close game on Tuesday between two of the best teams in the league right now, and one that likely ends up in a stalemate as a result.

Sheffield Wednesday have been by far the league’s best road team this year, generating a massive 2.13 PPG away from home this season, and have allowed the fewest number of goals also (0.56 GA/G).

However, they face a team in Barnsley that is not only one of the hottest teams in the entire league right now, but also one that has a top-rated defense also, ranking 2nd in the league in both total goals allowed and defensive xGA this season.

We’re backing the outright draw on Tuesday in the English League One matchup between Sheffield Wednesday and Barnsley.

Prediction: Draw +220
