Barnsley aim to build on a thrilling 5-0 win over Luton, but given their ups and downs on the road, we predict that Stockport will emerge triumphant (2-1) in Saturday's clash. The Hatters into this matchup with slightly better overall momentum, winning half of their recent games and showing strong away numbers—though their home form sits at a respectable 1.60 PPG. Their matches tend to be balanced, with 1.55 home xG and a relatively solid defensive record at Edgeley Park. The hosts have no new injury concerns, which adds further weight to our betting tip.
The Tykes, meanwhile, remain a highly unpredictable side. They score freely—2.00 goals per game overall—but defensive issues persist, especially away from home where they concede 1.75 goals and have 0% clean sheets. Their high BTTS rate (100% away) suggests their matches often become open and chaotic. With both teams generating similar expected goals values and H2H showing goal-heavy tendencies, this fixture sets up nicely for an entertaining encounter. Stockport’s slightly stronger structure and home edge make them marginal favourites, but Barnsley’s attack guarantees they will be dangerous. Important midfielder Jonathan Bland (suspension) should be sorely missed for the visiting team.
As Stockport have turned their Edgeley Park into a real fortress, Home Win is our main betting pick for this fixture. Additionally, BTTS (100% H2H) and Stockport to Win & Over 1.5 goals markets boast value.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 29 November 2025 at 12:30.
