Barnsley vs Bolton Wanderers Match Analysis & Prediction
05/03/2024 10:45 pm
Two promotion hopefuls will meet at Oakwell on Tuesday night when Barnsley play host to Bolton Wanderers for a League One match.
The Tykes are currently occupying fourth position with 66 points to their name, while Bolton are three points better off in third place.
Barnsley will head into the midweek contest in impressive form after securing a third successive victory in Saturday’s away encounter with Wycombe Wanderers, beating them 4-2.
Having avoided defeat in their last six matches, the Tykes are three points adrift of third-placed Bolton and second-placed Derby County – who have played at least a game more.
After enjoying a successful trip to Adams Park, Barnsley will return to their Oakwell turf where they have won four of their last five league matches.
Meanwhile, Bolton will have the chance to secure a second straight victory after they bounced back from successive defeats to beat Cambridge United 2-0 at the weekend, extending their unbeaten home league run to seven matches.
With Bolton sitting outside the top two on goal difference, they will move into the automatic promotion spots if they can pick up a point from Tuesday’s match.
However, the Trotters have struggled for consistency on their travels, having won four, drawn two and lost four of their last 10 away league matches.
Barnsley vs. Bolton Wanderers Head to head
In the 27 previous meetings between these two teams, Barnsley have claimed five victories while Bolton have won nine, and they have drawn in 13. Bolton have scored 39 goals and conceded 34 in the process.
