As both Barnet and Oldham will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday's clash, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-2 draw. The Bees must regroup quickly after a 1-0 defeat to Grimsby, a match defined by Joe Kizzi’s early red card. The defender is now suspended, weakening a back line that already relies heavily on structure and physical presence. Despite that setback, Barnet’s home numbers remain competitive: 1.75 points per game at The Hive and a strong 3.25 average goals per game in home fixtures. Their attacking output is reliable at home (2 goals per match), but defensive vulnerabilities may increase without Kizzi.
Oldham have been in a fine form, losing just one of their last five (WDWDW), and their ability to edge tight games was on display in the 2-1 win over Cheltenham. Their away record is less convincing, however, with only 1.00 point per game and 1.40 goals conceded per away match. The absence of forward Jack Stevens slightly reduces attacking rotation, but Oldham still average 1.40 goals per game overall and show good balance in xG metrics (1.56 for, 1.31 against).
The H2H leans slightly toward Oldham (3 wins in 7), but Barnet are generally stronger at home. As both sides average 2+ total goals per match and show defensive inconsistency, we are tempted to bet on Both Teams to Score, with additional value on Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 24 January 2026 at 12:30.
