Stockport County will be looking to build on a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Peterborough when they face Barnsley on Matchday 9, with the hosts chasing a fourth consecutive clean sheet in all competitions. Jimmy McNulty's side have been impressive in recent weeks and remain among the more dangerous attacking teams in League One, while Brad Hills and Adama Sidibeh are sidelined with injuries. Stockport have scored 3.20 goals per game across their last five home matches.
The Tykes, on the other hand, are enduring a difficult spell, having gone six games without a win in all competitions and struggling badly at the back. Barnsley have conceded 2.40 goals per game across their last 10 matches, while midfielder Luca Connell is suspended following his sending-off in the 1-1 draw with Leicester City. Their recent away form offers little encouragement either, with just one victory in their last five on the road.
Considering Stockport's defensive solidity and Barnsley's problems at the back, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Over 2.5 goals (50% H2H), and Both teams to score.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 10 October 2026 at 15:00.
