Barnsley vs Bolton prediction and odds for League One

The 1958/59 English Supercup winner will try to poach points away from an in-form Barnsley as the battle in League One intensifies.

Under 2.5 goals

Six of the last 10 games between Barnsley and Bolton ended with under 2.5 goals and we expect the clash on Monday to be a dull affair as well. After all, the two teams possess amazing defensive thirds and with such robust and unyielding performances from Barnsley, we can’t possibly see Bolton scoring on the 2^nd of January. Barnsley didn’t lose a single one of the last six league games. This is all due to the fantastic job at the back by coach Michael Duff’s boys.

Barnsley to win

The Tykes are certainly not the dominant force in this rivalry. The last 10 events ended with five victories for Bolton, four draws, and only one Barnsley win. However, Barnsley’s victory was the last head-to-head between these two teams, and the three games before it were all ties.

Bolton haven’t won a game against Barnsley in five years and it’s fair to say that time wasn’t too kind to the Trotters as Barnsley are a class above them at the moment.

Devante Cole to score

The 27-year-old target man has been on top of his game during this 2022/23 campaign and we can’t wait to see how well he’ll do against Bolton on Monday. After all, he did score seven goals and is the leading Barnsley goalscorer this season. But it would be a mistake to call him a one-trick pony as he contributes way more with his sheer presence, passing ability, and positioning.
