Barnsley will be eager to keep on climbing the standings when they face Stevenage in League One round 5, with the Tykes chasing a fourth consecutive victory in all competitions. Daniel Stendel's troops followed wins over Reading and Wycombe with a 2-1 midweek triumph against Blackpool, and Amani Richards could be rewarded with a starting berth after scoring from the bench. There are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts, who have recorded a 40% home win rate across their last 10 matches and boast an impressive 2.11 xG at home.
Stevenage, meanwhile, are still searching for their first win of the season after being held to a goalless draw by Peterborough. The Boro have lost several first-team regulars over the summer, leaving them with plenty of rebuilding to do. Their attacking struggles are also evident, with Stevenage scoring just 0.70 goals per game across their last 10 matches. Forward Phoenix Patterson picked up an injury against Peterborough, adding to their problems.
Barnsley on a three-game winning run, while Stevenage have won just 20% of their last 10. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Barnsley to Win to Nil and Barnsley Over 1.5 goals (The Tykes average 1.40 goals per game and 2.11 xG at home).
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 5 September 2026 at 15:00.
