Greeting visitors in their own stadium is safe and nice for Burton Albion, but Barnsley are fully determined and capable to get all three points. How will it turn out?

Insights:
  • Burton Albion have the most conceded goals in the second half (42) in League One
  • Barnsley have the fewest dropped points from leading position (4) in League One

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Burton Albion form and stats

6 victories, 5 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what Burton Albion have to build on here at Pirelli Stadium in the League One.

An away draw last time out for Burton Albion, facing Cheltenham Town in a game that ended 0-0. Moon, defender, was given a rating of 8.11/10 in that game, top of the team. Moon won 6 of 7 duels.

In the game before, an away victory match versus Port Vale with a 3-2 scoreline.

The manager Maamria will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Charlton Athletic in only three days.

Burton are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 18 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Burton Albion defense is not exactly impregnable. 29 goals conceded from 18 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Barnsley form and stats

As the visiting team in League One matches, Barnsley have produced an overall stat of 9-5-5 so far.

Barnsley go into this game after a win, the home game against Morecambe that ended 5-0. As you can tell from the results above, Barnsley was very dominant against Morecambe, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-0 (!) with Cole (2), Kane and Thomas providing the goals. The attacker Cole got a match rating of 8.62 in that game. Cole scored two goals and hit one key pass.

Prior to that match, the Barnsley manager Duff faced defeat when travelling to Exeter City and losing 1-3.

Observe that 8 of this team's 10 latest league matches have ended with three or more goals.

A quick return to home after this game, as Barnsley are hosting Shrewsbury Town in the League One only three days away.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Barnsley have scored 25 goals in 19 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Barnsley as they have only conceded 16 goals from these away games.
