Barnsley are yearning to increase their points at their own arena in this upcoming match hosting Hull City.
- Barnsley have the fewest scored goals in the second half (4) in Championship
- Hull City have the fewest scored goals (9) in Championship
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Barnsley and Hull City.
Barnsley form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Championship this season. Barnsley have only managed 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses from their games here at Oakwell Stadium.
The Barnsley supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Derby County in Championship and win 2-1. Midfield player Callum Brittain got a match rating of 7.82 in that game, the max score being 10. Brittain signed up for two assists, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times.
A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Bristol City.This is expected to be a close game, with Barnsley perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Barnsley as a small favourite), we find 23 games. Barnsley has won eleven of these, drawn six and lost six.
Barnsley have scored 7 league goals here from 8 matches, not a lot. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 10 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Hull City form and stats
There's been little loot from Hull City's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 8 away games in the Championship. Hull City only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 1 draw. Bitter travels for Hull as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Swansea City match.
Hull City have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 315 minutes ago. J. Magennis was the goal scorer.
Hull are travelling again after losing away to West Bromwich Albion in their previous match (0-1). Goalkeeper Matt Ingram got the top player rating of the team with 7.24/10. Ingram stopped the opponent with four saves.
Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Coventry City.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Hull City playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were four Hull City wins, two draws and four defeats.
Hull are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 4 goals from 8 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Hull have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Statistics for the preceeding ten meetings featuring these two contenders are: four wins for Barnsley, three draws and three wins for Hull City. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.Top Goalscorers
