English football games are a must-watch, given the emotional sensations and vivid memories they provide, piquing the curiosity of even those not passionate about football. On the 3rd of February, England's third-strongest division, Bolton will play against Barnsley. Let's inspect the team's condition and aim to make a decision that could help increase our bankroll.
This team is well-known for their performances in the Premier League. They are currently led by Ian Evatt, who helped them to ascend from League 2. They have spent the 3rd season in the third division of England. Last year, they were close to advancing to the Championship, but Barnsley defeated them with a score of (1:2) in the play-off stage.
In the 23rd round, the squad won against Fleetwood (2:0) away from home. In the next round, the team won by a subtle margin against Burton Albion. Following this, they conceded to Leyton Orient (0:1). After, they succeeded in defeating Cheltenham by a scoreline of (1:0). In the most recent game, they triumphed over Carlisle (4:1).
Last year, the 'Tykes' were very close to making a return to the Championship. At the season's end, they placed 4th and peogressed to the play-off stage. There they bested Bolton, but in the final match against Sheffield Wednesday, they conceded during extra time and lost by a subtle margin.
In the 24th round, they settled for a draw against Wigan (1:1). Next, Barnsley defeated Bristol Rovers with a score of (2:1). In the following round, the team triumphed over Carlisle (2:1). After this, they won against Oxford by a low margin. However, in their latest match, the lads suffered a defeat against Exeter City with a score of (1:2).
The latest face-off between Bolton and Barnsley was on the 19th of May 2023. That game concluded with a narrow victory for the 'Tykes'.
Bolton is the main contender for the victory in this standoff. Lately, they've been showing exemplary gameplay, and on top of that, they will be playing on their home turf. I think Barnsley's recent defeat against Exeter will have a negative impact, and so, I don't believe they'll be able to pull off anything on the road.
I think the teams will play offensive football, so I recommend placing a bet on a total over 2.5.
