Top Exeter City vs Barnsley prediction and odds for League One
We’re going to see one hell of a game at St James Park when Exeter City and Barnsley collide on the 24th of January. Don’t miss out on our top Exeter City vs Barnsley prediction below!

Draw
The Tykes don’t have the head-to-head advantage, fragile as it might be, they won’t count on the home-field support card, but they do have momentum. With 13 victories this season, the only teams to record more wins than Barnsley are Sheffield Wednesday, Plymouth Argyle, and Ipswich Town. Sure, perhaps a Barnsley win on Tuesday at St James Park would be a bit of a stretch but the fans should be fully prepared to share the spoils with their rivals.
Under 2.5 goals
The first game between the two clubs ended with a thrifty 0:2 victory for Exeter City at Oakwell Stadium and we’re convinced that there won’t be too much action on Tuesday either. After all, 21 of Exeter City’s 39 goals have been scored by Jevani Brown and Sam Nombe. Nullify the strikers, and you get a lackluster event with very few goals. Our second Exeter City vs Barnsley prediction suggests two or fewer goals and it’s further backed up by the fact that Barnsley have the 4th-best defense in the league.
Sam Nombe to score
The Sam Nombe – Jevani Brown combo is working like a charm and the two players managed to score a total of 21 goals combined for Exeter City in League One. However, we fancy Sam Nombe for this game as he does have a one-goal advantage over his colleague up front and he did provide his teammates with two assists this season.
Barnsley couldn’t cope with the pressure in the historic-first game against Exeter City back in October as the result was 0:2 in favor of the Grecians. Sam Nombe was leading Exeter City’s attack in that game and although he didn’t score, he was at his lethal best setting up Jay Stansfield to score two goals.
Exeter City vs Barnsley: match preview & news
Our next match preview will aid your bet-making process.
Exeter City
The Grecians are one of the League One teams with commendable momentum. Sure, the 2022/23 campaign didn’t start off great as coach Gary Caldwell’s boys lost a bunch of matches right at the start but with two victories, two draws, and only one loss in the last five League One events, Exeter City are a force to be reckoned with these days.
Barnsley
We feel sorry for coach Michael Duff as his boys were certainly not the weaker of the two sides at the Valley a couple of days ago. Barnsley’s last visit against Charlton was completely under the Tykes’ control but they still managed to lose it with a 2:0 result. Nothing like this will happen on Tuesday as Michael Duff’s players have certainly learned their lesson.
